I wish to travel by train Xian >Beijing west abt end of oct '11.

I would prefer soft seat NOT sleeper!! Seat near exit door toilet and luggage store ? I am 66 years old with back problems so have to be able to move around without disturbing other passengers I have checked Z54, T232 trains and others on this site, good dep and arr times for me. I have no problem sleeping anywhere a single seat with pillow no problem. In sleeper I would not be able to move freely. Can you recommend best option for me??
thanks kind regards smjt Reply by 25 aug if possible for travel agent to book for me.
