I have been on countless sleeper trains in my time around the world but it was finally time to experience one here in China! People told me mixed stories of the trains here so I wasn't sure what to believe however in this video we are going first class! Yes for the first time on this channel we are going for some luxury. Only issue is...this journey is 18 hours long! So let's find out what a first class sleeper train looks like for 18 hours here in China!
