About:Trans-Siberian Railway

Length of journey

Hello,

In the first sentence, I'm assuming you mean that it takes thirteen days rather than thirteen years to complete the journey? According to Google Maps it would take less than thirteen years to just get out of the train and walk from Moscow to Vladivostok if the train moves that slowly lol.

Sorry, I realized after reading further that this is referring to the time it took to construct the railway. Further down, it is mentioned that it was built from 1891 to 1916. Just want to point out that in that case, the first sentence should be updated to 23 years for the construction, rather than 13.

Thanks!

The railway was completed in 1904, but the follow-up project was not finished until 1916.
