BOOK your tickets now for Britain’s longest train journey, which comes to an end on May 16. Cross Country trains is axing the Aberdeen to Penzance through service, a mighty 774-mile journey. stopping at 32 stations, taking 13 hours and 20 minutes. What’s left for mega-journey train fanatics? Well, the Trans-Siberian is out of bounds for the forseeable future. But I can recommend The Ghan, north to south across the continent of Australia from Darwin to Adelaide through Alice Springs. Sensational!
