Is the entire track elevated? I would assume that would aid in grading the tracks - or is it to not interfere with some of the land uses (livestock, grazing, etc) of the surrounding land?

Great stuff, btw.

The project is a disaster for Tibetan population but I have to admit than I am really impress!

By the way, the train is from Bombardier, a company from Quebec
