Plot twist: the video ends abruptly because the train exploded seconds later
Or the tracks only go as far a 2km into north korea 😝
@@G_Force-cx2mr 🤔 i've never heard of a joke? Is it edible?
@@G_Force-cx2mr You are actually not seeing his/hers joke.
“For the first time in more than a decade, a train has travelled from South Korea across the heavily guarded border into North Korea. On board is a team of South Korean experts investigating ways to help North Korea modernise its rail network.” Source BBC News.
Thank you. This was the most bizarre news clip I've seen [not involving Donald Trump] for a long, long time.
You have provided a public service!
👍
@James-Robertson :Daneke Kim told Trump at the 2019 Hanoi summit to essentially GTFO. Biden hasn't really changed anything.
Biden wears diapers, because he's too senile to hold urine.
@Jim :Daneke Biden hasn’t really done much with respect to NK. Status quo, basically. Things were improving with Trump until their last meeting.
I’m hoping that the Biden administration can hold discussions with NK. I don’t care who is in the White House. I hate Trump but I was super hopeful that he would be able to convince NK to loosen up.
Train of reunification runs!
After that, no one have seen this train again from North Korea xD ))
Now it's the newest train added to N-Korea's fleet
Hahahaha
That train now belongs to North Korea's state railway, made by Kim Jong-Un himself by working tirelessly for 3 days straight without sleep or eat. Working on the train for the happiness and wellbeing of the North Korean people
Or that's what North Korea's propaganda video says 🤪
Hear that cough? That’s the morning cigarette and red bull kicking in for the gate guard 😂
Lol underrated comment.
Based
I think it's from one of the media folks. Not the gate guard
Only the best of the best of ROK soldiers who can patrol the DMZ and if they find out you have slight health issues, they will sent you somewhere else
real the crew was sent to hoeryong camp 22, then replaced by immaculately similar and uncanny double agents for north korea! BEST KOREAR!!!!
A decade late?? Our public transport could learn from this how to run closer to time than they manage to right now.
Where's the news? What's the news? Nice train, but I couldn't even figure out how many cars (wagons) the locomotive was pulling.
It was too clipped & incoherent to be interesting for a railfan, and too uninformative to be a news report.
Great video like it very much .Hope there more to come .
Wow.
NORTH AND SOUTH KOREAS MUST UNITE LIKE GERMANY
Sadly it's not that easy. The financial and cultural differences are so much bigger than between East and West Germany.
If and only if China stop supporting NK then they can be united peacefully
East Germany is real Germany
@@khangphan5174 China and North Korea are good
East Germany is best germany
News would answer who what where why and how.....
not really.
@@cecilokatrona Always that one smartass having to say the opposite in the UA-cam comments.
Small changes to some are such big changes to others .... 💜 Any progress is good progress 😊
Holy!
0:17 COVID🤣🤣🤣
Is there there a diesel tank on this train for the loco to use later in the trip?
that engine looks like the movie train to busan
cute how they think that fence is gonna stop a train. :P
Would have been more exciting if we’d seen the same South Korean train allowed out of North Korea half an hour later, with the same passengers on board all intact!
Ahora está cerrado😢
Interesting
I'm surprised DPRK has the same track gauge (rail spacing) as S. Korea. Stalin changed the gauge of Russian RRs to five feet (instead of 4' 8-1/2") to prevent his equipment from being stolen. Same thing happened during the American Civil War. Southern states had a wider gauge than the north.
Not correct. USSR gauge ever was 1524 mm (now 1520). Nazis regauged a lot of lines as they advanced, and were regauged again when they were expulsed.
Kind of a side question: who came up with a rail width of 4' 8 1/2"? And why? Seems kinda an odd number. 🤷♂️
@@c.j.cleveland7475 Stephenson (which NOT invented the railway, but is the father of the modern railway system and the conception of wide available steam locomotives) used 4´ 8´´, which was the gauge of the coal mine where he worked and developped their first locomotives. The 1/2´´ was added to easy the rolling stock track use on the Liverpool-Manchester railway (the first inter city railway with passenger and freight service pulled by steam locomotives - two previous public steam railways used horses for passenger trains or cables to pull the trains on inclines using steam fixed engines for a section of the line).
@@MarceloBenoit-trenes Interesting. Thanks! 😃👍
Incorrect. Stalin did not change the gauge. Since a railway from Moscow to St. Petersburg opened in 1851 the gauge was 1524 mm which is 5'.
I hope both sides unite
Oh oh 😱
I would be shook!!
Train to Busan

Once the deal ✍️ is done between North Korea 🇰🇵 and South Korea 🇰🇷. Then, they’ll have freight container trains 🚂 between Europe 🇪🇺 and South Korea 🇰🇷
are they back alive?
0:18 what's the green tape on the gun mag for?
I think it's to identify the type of ammunition, maybe it's tracer bullets?
"carrying their own fuel and supplies due to trade sanctions." They apply sanctions to own country?
Sigh... that means North Koreans will not provide fuel and other supplies due to the sanctions.
Would be cool to see some people use their brains.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'll betcha no one on that train defected to North Korea !
I think there will be no unification. But keep two Korean country just bilateral connection better from before and North more openly and tourism to the North increase.
Just like that.. they were never heard again
Why can’t they railfan in North Korea
Is that the same train Peter Griffin was on in that episode Meg was ice skating or something in Korea? Didn't remember what she was doing because Meegg...
TRAIN OF REUNIFICATION RUNS!
Did they make it back?
15 people died on the train that day after being shot
@@canadianaviator So this was a suicide mission I understand
@@canadianaviator While trying to escape? 😂
@@JMsoo No. The train quickly went missing soon after and 2 weeks later it was featured in North Korea's propaganda video with Kim Jong-Un handing over the train, newly painted to North Korea's rail company
All of the passengers onboard went missing and their fate is still unknown to this day 😂
Information of the name of that engine: that train is an G22 in korea used like a intercity locomotive and in argentina used as a regular service locomotive
its a GT26,not G22.
That's not really the case. Korea's intercity trains are far far more advanced than anything in Argentina. This is considered a low-end class of train in Korea, or perhaps a workhorse.

출고(지하철 이송)의 열차의 기관차로 쓰이며
현재 가장 낡은 노선의 기관차를 담당하고 있습니다.
I get the feeling that this is a NK version of (the Twilight Zone: to serve man .)
How is it possible?
Are the train tracks not different?
No. Both standard gauge, like in China. Russia has different gauge.
....Until the NoKo’s angrily shut it down again over some perceived breech in protocol or offensive action in the South. Ho hum, nothing to see here.
*Immediate* derailment
15 people inside that train died that day
And the train quickly became the newest addition to the North Korean railway fleet, a gift from Kim Jong-Un himself
내돈으로 잘 쓰고 다니네
효과도 없는 전시성 사업
North korea just acquired a brand new train!
Oh to be honest none of them is real Korea now the reunification of Korea needs to create a third state out of the two sure I support a unified Korea but neither a secretive closed off state nor a junior partner ( vassal state) of a major power both variants sucks now a united Korea has to be Independent, open and sovereign just like Finland of course true Korea would be a neutral Korea with normal government we should be realistic
What the hell is this spacing
@@KentuckyFriedChildren ikr?
@@KentuckyFriedChildren It could be a lot worse .
Conductor: “HEY! You flush underwear, in train toilet!?”
Peter: “Yeah...they were done!”
Conductor: “That’s ILLEGAL! I want you off train, NOW!”
Peter: “What’re YOU gonna do about it!? You’re just a train conductor...WITH A HUGE KICKING FOOT!?”
Conductor: 🥾 💥
Ignorant westerners and Americans you are watching history of the great glorious and generous of all world leaders and beloved leader to all North Koreans Kim Jong Un as he allows his neighbours and beloved if not brainwashed brothers and sisters safe and now effortless passage home. By the love of the gods that bestowed upon us the glorious leaders of the kim Dynasty we give thanks and show greatly our gratitude and to Mount Paektu the symbol of freedom and prosperity.
Reunite under North Korea
