history
Regular operations on Ch'spngjin's standard-gauge line, which is the only one to date , began on July 2, 1999. It was initially six kilometers long and was extended by seven kilometers in the first stage.

In addition, the operation of the existing route cannot always be maintained due to a lack of electricity. There is a depot .
