View of the Tibetan plateau from the train to Lhasa

The train to Lhasa is special for various reasons: it runs on the highest rail line in the world and it is the only train with oxygen supply. Traveling the train is also a pleasant experience.
After a very good sleep, I woke up just as we rolled into Golmud station the next morning. Still under 3,000m, I knew we would soon go higher than that, and for most of the day, would stay well over 4,000m. Soon, recordings over the public address system were telling all kinds of facts and legends in three languages, at times coming very close to be pure propaganda. Anyone has to admit that what for a long time seemed impossible, was done in just 5 years: building the highest rail line over a distance of more than 1100km, most of which lies at over 4000m altitude and runs over permafrost terrain. I mostly just looked out, to the empty landscapes (this area is one of the least inhabited in the world), before I started walking around the train.
