It is the longest continuous railway on earth and it is about six thousand miles long, so you are in for quite a ride if you go from west to east, end to end.  Some travelers say that it’s the mingling with the other passengers that makes this kind of trip, eventful and unforgettable. I’ve heard that the most popular route to travel, begins in Moscow, and goes to Berlin.  From Berlin, you go to Paris and on to St. Petersburg, with a final destination being Helsinki.  Loving train travel, and the fact that you don’t read maps and spend valuable time being lost; rather you mingle and sight see, and take in all that you can of places you have dreamed of;  this definitely makes my things to do list.
