21 station over 400km, this mean 1 station every 19 km... this train won't be a "high speed train"... but anyway this will be a great progress for the country.
I just hope they won't destroy too much nature and local populations houses/lands, and hope also prices for ticket won't be too high.
Do anyone know where are exactly located the 2 Vientiane stations?
To finish, only 4 years for a such ambitious project seams very short. if they are really able to do it (i mean have it realy working, with good quality of service and not too much damage for local people) , this mean the power of Chinese is really very strong!!!!

Express train only stop at few stations.
For example: Express from Boten to Vientiane may stop only at Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng then Vientiane.
Domestic train, for people inside the country may stop all stations.
I hope Lao workers can have some chair with them because some one said three million Chinese workers will come to work on that project! that is why only four years construction.
And hope fully Lao government not stupid like last time, was Seagames sport stadium constrution only Chinese workers.
