Press reporter to connect. New
Co-search, how are you?
Report
Our train, which left Seoul Station this morning, will open the investigation on 18 days from this day on the North Korean railway line.
I left Dorasan Station just after 9 am and I pbaded the North Train to Panmun Station to catch the connected North Train.
It is not far from Panmun station and is 7.3 km away, so it seems to be working now.
This single-track train will cover 2,600 kilometers over the North Korean railway in the next 18 days.
Of these, 1,200 km is the area to be explored and a 400 km section from Gyeongui to Sinuiju is explored first.
In 2007, we mapped out this section and we can look at the current situation of changes to the North Korean Railway in eleven years.
The train should take six days to get here, then go back down to Pyongyang, then inland until the east sea line.
We will study 800 km from Mount Kumgang to the Tumen River for 10 days.
This is the first time our train is running.
We will come back to our side on the 17th of next month.
