This paper deals with the exchange of tourists and the operation of sightseeing train encouraged by the inter-Korean cross-border railway project. First of all, how the inter-Korean cross-border railway project has developed will be discussed. After this, the present tourism state, facilities, the state of railways and roads of North Korea, and major tourist attraction around the Kyonguisun will be shown. And then, several aspects on the agreements between the Korean National Railroad (KORAIL) and North Korean railroad system will be summarized. And, finally, the economic effect of the line including the operation schedule of the Kyonguisun sightseeing train, the demand forecast, the computation of railway fare, and profit sharing will be depicted.

최근에 남북철도를 통한 대륙철도의 움직임이 우리들에게 비상한 관심과 함께 실질적인 동북아의 물류거점으로서의 우리의 역할이 급부상하고 있다. 그간 제4차국토종합개발계획과 국가기간교통망계획등에서 한반도의 물류중 심지구상이나 X축의 고속철도망등이 현실적인 과제로 다가온 것이다.(중략)

동북아 지역은 경제적으로 선진국과 신흥공업국, 개발도상국이란 서로 상이한 경제발전 수준을 가지고 있으며, 정치적으로는 자본주의와 사회주의라는 다른 체제가 공존하고 있다. 이러한 상황 속에서 한반도에는 남북정상회담 이후 남북 교류의 새로운 장을 열게된 경의선 복원사업이 실시됨과 동시에 러시아가 경원선 연결을 통하여 시베리아횡단철도와 한국철도의 연결을 제의하여 철도 연결을 둘러싼 동북아의 상황은 빠르게 변모하고 있다. (중략)

본고에서는 최근 논의되고 있는 ATP 도입의 필요성 및 시스템 선정의 적절성을 검토하는데 있어서 철도신호 분야 뿐만이 아닌 우리의 환경변화 여건 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 철도의 장기 발전전략에 부합하는 APT 도입 방안을 제시하였다. ATP 도입시 고려해야 할 주요 환경변화로는 고속철도개통, 기존철도시스템과의 조화와 관련한 기술발전 측면, 틸팅차량 등 기존선 속도향상, 전철화, 복선화 등 철도영업거리 확장 및 남북철도연결 등을 고려해야 할 것이다. 즉, 바람직한 차상신호장치 도입을 위해서는 차량과의 적합성에 있어서는 기존차량, 특히 속도계장치와의 호환성, 시설분야에 있어서는 설치작업 및 향후 유지보수의 용이성과 국산화 가능성, 향후 남북철도 연결과 고속 철도의 기존선 연계운행 등을 종합적으로 고려하고 장기적인 철도발전에 도움이 되는 방향으로 추진되어야 할 것이다. 결론적으로, 우리철도의 기반시설과 차량 등의 현황과 향후 변동요인을 반영하여 가장 바람직한 ATP 표준기준을 용역 등을 통해 설정하고, 업체선정, 적어도 1년 정도의 시험기간을 거쳐 실용화 단계로 접근해야 할 것이다.

해방후 3대산업선 건설시만 해도 철도건설기술은 토목공사의 선구자였다. 그러나 1960년대 경부고속도로 개통으로 도로기술이 앞서게 되고 철도의 발전도 침체되어 오다가, 시속 300km/h의 경부고속철도가 2004년 개통을 앞두고 있는 현 시점에서 비로소 철도의 효용성을 알게 되었고 대도시의 대중교통에서도 역시 지하철이 최선임을 알게 되었을뿐만 아니라 남북화해에 가장 뜻 있는 경의선 남북 철도 연결과 대륙간 연장 운행의 필요성으로 그 의의가 크게 되어 이제야말로 우리나라 철도의 르네상스 시대가 도래한 것 같다.(중략)

It is essential to connect the railroads between South and North Korea in order to the implementation of the Eurasia initiatives and prepare for the normalization of the economic cooperation between south and north Korea as well as the unification. This study provides the strategy to establish the rail logistics network for the normalized trades between south and north Korea, and the accommodation of the logistics demands to China and Russia. The alternative routes were designated and the costs for the rehabilitation were estimated, and suggested the priority for the investment. The Trans-China Rail is prior to the Trans-Siberia Rail in terms of the utility for the logistics and the political value. In connection to the TSR, it is desirable to pass the Seoul-Gyeonggi area where the demand is greater than the other area. This route is limited by the restriction in the capacity, then the Gyeonggi Ring Rail route may be necessary.

As a part of several Eurasian initiatives, the Korean government is trying to reconnect railways through North Korea to the Asian continent. If South Korea could build a network using railway, it would be a chance to develop a robust economic environment and to motivate economic growth. In the railway reconnection project between North and South Korea, the most important part of the railway roadbed sector is repair or improvement, and then construction of a new line through North Korea. There are not many big differences in the geological conditions; however, climate condition varies greatly during winter. The most significant condition in the safety of railway operation is frost-heaving. However, since South Korea has a relatively mild climate condition compared with North Korea, design and construction specifications under severe weather conditions in winter have not been prepared. This study proposes a plan for revising the railway design standard for underpass structures through an analysis of international standards, leading to site construction to prevent frost-heave.

This study is the realization of natural gas as ways to advance the South and the continental railway linking basic research was conducted on railway transport. Summary data on the Status of North Korean railway which was to have reviewed the case of LNG railway transportation in Japan and China is becoming an LNG tank containers by rail transportation is done. In the case of Korea, the stability of railway transportation through the development of LNG tank containers and rail transportation pilot project was tested. It was set up and the basic directions of freight trains transport routes and methods for rail transport 7.5 million tons of natural gas per year. TKR ~ TSR between the LNG transportation business is an existing railway south. North. Russia gas pipeline (PNG) instead of a separate project to replace the business SRX (Silk Road Express) is a symbolic project for the early realization of the Eurasian railway linking policy. This study may give greater meaning to secure the iconic railway transport route for continental transport of containers and bulk cargo (coal, ores, etc.).
