The Trans-Siberian Railroad in Russia is the longest continuous rail line on earth. It’s almost 6,000 miles (or about 10,000 kilometers) long.

Tourists ride this train because it is a very special experience. They get on the train in Moscow and get off seven days later in the Far East. Or, if they want, they can stop and visit places on the way.

and then it goes through a tunnel.
