21d by train from Portugal to S’pore

Love a good long train ride? Well, you're in luck because one new journey has become the longest on the planet and will take you from Portugal to Singapore.
Covering more than 18750 kilometres, the 21-day journey involves a number of service changes as it travels from Lagos in Portugal all the way to Singapore.
Just like a student on their Europe gap year, you'll hop on and off trains in cities like Paris, Moscow, Bejing and Bangkok as part of the world's longest train ride.
The title of the longest train ride was only recently earned by the trip after a new 418-kilometre railway line was created between Laos and China, Now, travellers can ride from Mohan station in Yunnan, China to Singapore.
The route was calculated by online rail blogger Mark Smith from seat61.com along with train fans on Reddit.
Costs for various train tickets were estimated to be around $2007.
Before now, a continuous train journey on this route would have ended in Vietnam and only gone on for around 16,898km.
