Train travel
OK, we booked 4 nights at the Ruijin Hotel in the former French Concession, and plan to travel to Nanjing for 2 nights. Assuming the Ruijin will get train tickets for us, is it possible to get to the station and on the right train without being able to speak much Chinese, or to read any at all? I remember from a trip to Beijing 10 years ago that street signs were exclusively in Chinese and in the simplified version to boot.
