Great rail journeys that exist only in fantasy
A rail tunnel has opened under the Bosphorus, offering tantalising possibilities for rail anoraks, writes Tom de Castella.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-maga...nitor-24748590 "Anything is possible on a train," wrote Paul Theroux in the Great Railway Bazaar, "a great meal, a binge, a visit from card players, an intrigue, a good night's sleep, and strangers' monologues framed like Russian short stories."

Although I have parallel thoughts about reaching to China, that tunnel, called as Marmaray, will have the best choice for reaching to Middle East, I guess.
