TRAIN
The North - South 'Reunification' ...
Over the last decade the Hanoi-Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) train service has been steadily improving and a whole range of daily air-conditioned trains now link Hanoi, Hue, Danang, Nha Trang & Ho Chi Minh (Saigon). Here are the principal trains, all running daily. Look for the 'SE' numbered trains, as these are the best. The 'TN' trains are slower and older. There are additional trains at peak times, such as the Tet holiday period.
