There is something about train journeys that makes these quite an adventure. From early childhood, there are many people who fall in love with train journeys and this passion stays with these people for the rest of their lives. No matter how old they become, they invariably come back to the train journeys that  have given them so much joy over the years. This is also true given the fact that airline journeys and hanging around in airports is no longer considered cool and could be seriously harmful to world ecology.  For many, an airplane journey may be fast and cheap too, it misses out on the landscape below that is there to be seen and savored.

If you do not go on train journeys, you do not get to see the rolling mountains, gushing streams, green meadows and the many bounties of nature that are there for everyone to look at and enjoy. This is where train journeys score big time over airplane journeys any day. There lies the inspiration for compiling the list of the 10 best train journeys of all time, which have been compiled with a lot of care and after huge amounts of research. From the Trans-Siberian rail link to the highest China-Tibet line to cross country lines across Australia and India, you will be amazed at the wide variety of train lines that feature in this list.
