Pretty sure scheduling in this long train route is more hassle for the Chinese than loaning him a plane.

The significance of the 3 days travel (one way!) is that Kim reserved a total of 8+ days for a relatively brief meeting with Trump.

How many people do you know that would free 8 days just to chat with you for a few hours? Only people that highly respect you, love you or are extremely desperate would do so.

To me this is a stronger message than any memorandum or agreement could have been. Kim made considerable effort to meet Trump.

That is great insight. I didn't think of that. It was well worth the trip, I'm sure.
