Thumbs up China may lift Tibet permit rules

Good news, hopefully soon:
China may abolish permit restrictions for Tibet visitors

The article says, maybe as soon as this winter.
One possible good side-effect of The Train.

I wonder if this means the 'illegal' routes to Lhasa, from Kashgar, Kunming, and Chengdu will now open up.

In particular, Kunming to Lhasa is supposed to be a real treat for scenery.
