FROM the frozen wastes of Siberia to our own backyard there are plenty of adventure train journeys to satisfy even the most jaded traveller. Mark Smith is a British train buff and travel writer known as ‘The Man in Seat 61’ who has travelled the world’s finest trains, always in seat 61. “A great train ride is that triple combination of the scenery outside the train, the experience inside the train and the people you meet and things that happen on that specific trip which make it memorable,” Mark Smith says. “Flying has lost its glamour, it’s time to rediscover real travel by train where the journey itself is an adventure.” So don’t just watch the train go past, jump on and go on an adventure to remember.
