Presenting you the top 10 longest trains in the world.

Have you ever wondered, how long was the longest train in the history of railways?
High durability of the track network, modularity of the wagons, and the ability to use more than one locomotive to haul much larger weights enabled trains to become very long during late 20th and early 21st century. Before that time the trains were mostly limited by the power of a single locomotive and configurations of the train network (road crossing frequencies, distances between track switching points and more. The first long trains started appearing when train managers started combining two regular trains into one, giving the entire train structure a power boost by placing 2nd locomotive in the middle of wagons. Later large haul trains were powered by mighty diesel-electric locomotives with their power going all the way up to 6000 bhp and even beyond.
Here's the list of the 10 longest trains of all times.

The trains listed in this video (in no particular order) are:
Daqin Railway
Canadian National & Canadian Pacific
Mt Goldsworthy - BHP Billiton
