Description
China has spent 18 years building one railway. It still isn't finished.
The Sichuan–Tibet Railway climbs onto the roof of the world, through mountains that are still rising, where 80% of the route is tunnel or bridge. When it opens, a 41-hour journey becomes 13.
This is how China is doing it.
