Travelogue

David has travelled on national/territorial rail, urban rail/city metro, and tram networks across Europe, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas.

He’s been both on the world’s fastest trains – China’s Revival Express/Fuxing Hao, the Eurostar, as well as the Railjet, TGV, and ICE — as well as on slower Green Trains across China. He’s visited both Metro hubs such as London, Paris, Beijing, and Shanghai – as well as less busy systems in Lausanne and Lille. Across Greater China, he’s been on national/regional train systems and metro/tram systems on the mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.
