WessexEclectic Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 nytimes.com/2018/03/27/world/asia/kim-jong-un-train-beijing There are believed to be at least 90 high-security carriages at the leader’s disposal, according to a 2009 South Korea news report that relied on classified information. According to the report, written during the era of Mr. Kim’s father, Kim Jong-il, three trains operate each time the leader travels: an advance security train, the leader’s train and a third carrying additional bodyguards and supplies. There's also an excellent Wikipedia article on Korean State Railways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dullsteamer Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 A train believed by some to be from North Korea... Looks remarkably like a China Rail DF11z to me. Cheers, Mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grovenor Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Looks remarkably like a China Rail DF11z to me .Given its unlikely Korean drivers would be able to drive in China and Chinese crew be passed on Korean locos I wouls expect a loco change at the border. The carriages seen on TV did not look like standard Chinese. regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
