3 Train from Beijing to Shanghai

The train looks crisp and clean, not bad. I think trains must look like this in the future, have additional comfortability, wireless Internet (satellite?) and such luxurious if they want to compete with aviation. Here in scandinavia flying nationaly is often cheaper than train, taxes included, and considering how much time is saved the trains are looking emptier and emptier. A 10 hour train trip takes me one hour by flight and the cost is around 300-400 RMB (youth ticket, below 26 y.o.a.). A train ticket can cost anything between 400-1200 RMB. Not bad in an otherwise expensive region (Sweden). Low-cost airlines are giving the giants are real fight for their money.

It's fun you enjoy IKEA. I'm from Sweden myself. Great blog you have here, I will be reading here frequently in the future. I am thinking about studying chinese + economics and this is a good resource for finding out more than the "standard" stuff. Thanks!
