Far better living conditions than I expected, lack of cars the most noticeable thing missing. I have traveled by train in China, Thailand and Vietnam, and compared to what I have seen in those countries, poor housing and trash everywhere this looks amazingly clean.
yeah, Communism makes well regularity but bad in economy, the foundation of people in Thailand are quite dirty and lacking Collective consciousness. and the fact about people in some third-world countries is people don't like to anything for good housing or beautification or organize and cleaning just because there are not making money.
and for another lesson for why North Korea is looking amazingly clean. they don't have anything to throw such as product package. If they have a chicken drumstick even the bone is edible. (Believe me, Starving could make that, not fun.)
I was in China and in Thailand and it struck me that the streets were very clean. If you compare this to for example Western Europe, where you will see litter everywhere.
Nice video. That has to be the most neatly ballasted roadbed I've ever seen. By all the rocking I see, it doesn't look like it was properly leveled after ballasted though. Are you allowed to take video of the actual train? BTW, all the wind noise gets to be really annoying.
I enjoiyed my time in the DPRK, videos like this made me nostalgic. It is a lovely, quiet country and a sort of Socialist, tactile dignity is in the whole thing. Reminds me of the advanced simplicity of a bakelite telephone.
all korean railways were built by japan the bridges are all the same without railing only the track on the beams and pilars , despite the railways connecting seoul pyongyand and kimgand were restored the main line connecting seoul to wonsan is still under studies for rebuilding and fully restor the inter korean railways
