Helsinki to Vladivostok-Part 37
Author: CNStratford

Finally the last day on the train.
Picture 1 - the Belogorsk Station - 7661km east of Moscow (about 4760 miles).
Picture 2 - Coal train with older locomotives
Picture 3 - I have this picture labelled "Ulan Bator train arriving" but according to the maps, the Ulan Bator train turned south at Ulan Ude. Maybe the long train journey was affecting my thinking.

Great series Bob, you and gobbl3gook are certainly responsible for the jump in the numbers on the International Board. I look forward to more postings on this trip and hopefully more on the Cuban series. Thank-you again for all your effort.

Love the first picture, Lenin pointing and striding boldly into the Socialist future....

Having done a trip similar to that 31 years ago,
it was great to see some of the same things on the train. And off the train.
Fantastic story and enough to make me want to go back again.
Well done.
Graham.

Are you sure he's not hailing a taxi? (Yes, I know about Socialist Realism...)
