News - NKorea Ryongchon - Exclusive footage of train station and city BEFORE disaster
ZDF.archive has exclusive rights to unique, recent footage of the North Korean town of Ryongchon and its train station, where two explosives-laden trains collided on Thursday (April 22nd, 2004) destroying or damaging thousands of buildings and killing several hundred people, according to latest reports.
These scenes were filmed in December 2003 by a group of German rail enthusiasts who visited the region travelling by rail. Ryongchon is the site of chemical and metalworking plants, and has a reported population of 130,000.
The pictures of ZDF.archive show passengers desperately trying to board a train, being fought back by what appears to be a train conductor. Later on, two girls are seen hanging on to a closed carriage door, as the train starts moving.
As a result of the train blast, the secretive North Korean government cut international phone lines to prevent news of the collision from leaking across its borders, according to the South Korean news agency, Yonhap. Thursday’s accident is only going to make the situation worse, with a key transport link to the outside world in tatters - and a main supply route in ruins.
