Paektusan Ch'ŏngnyŏn Line

The Paektusan Ch'ŏngnyŏn Line is an electrified standard-gauge secondary mainline of the North Korean State Railway running from Kilju on the P'yŏngra Line to Hyesan on the Paengmu Line; it connects to two narrow-gauge railway lines: the Paengmu Line at Paegam Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station, and the Samjiyŏn Line at Wiyŏn Station. On 9 October 2006 an underground nuclear test was conducted at Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site in Kilju County, causing the closure of the line for 3-4 months.
