In 1945, a rolling stock repair facility in P'yŏngyang,With ample coal supplies to fire steam locomotives, and electrification of the rail network being expanded rapidly after the Korean War, dieselisation was not the priority for Kukch'ŏl that it was for many other railways, not starting in earnest until the second half of the 1960s with the arrival of the first diesel locomotives from Hungary and the Soviet Union. It is divided into five Regional Bureaus: P'yŏngyang, Also subordinate to the Railway Ministry are five major industrial concerns: the There are four research institutes subordinate to the Railway Ministry for scientific research, design review, and the exploration of new technologies for the design and production of rolling stock (the The Railway Ministry also operates a network of sports clubs throughout the country, in sports such as The Korean State Railway operates over 5,248 km (3,261 mi) of railway, of which 4,725 km (2,936 mi) is North Korea's national transportation policy focusses on the railway as the primary means of transport for both passengers and freight.In recent years, emphasis has been placed on moving away from railway to road transport for movements of 150 km (93 mi)–200 km (120 mi) or less, due to the greater cost effectiveness of road transport over short distances.Railways carry a very large portion of traffic in North Korea:Due to the ageing infrastructure, normal operation is made difficult by chronic power shortages and poor state of infrastructure maintenance.The railway provides the primary form of long-distance transport in North Korea.In 1983 the Korean State Railway began operation of P'yŏngyang–Beijing trains as well, using its own rolling stock, and since then the KSR and China Railway each operate two weekly round trips between the two capitals.The other major international service is a through train (specifically, a sleeping car) that operates fortnightly between P'yŏngyang and There is also an international passenger service from Other important long-distances trains include amongst others P'yŏngyang - North Korea has an extensive network of standard and narrow gauge rail lines,This list shows only the main trunk lines. No. Locomotives.

More than 1020 bullet holes of the locomotive and its bent wheels show the cruel situation at the time. Later, around the late 1960s or early 1970s, a system similar to that introduced for electric locomotives was applied to steam and diesel locomotives. To alleviate this problem, more M62s from several European countries, along with a sizeable number of second-hand locomotives from China, were imported.In recent years, extensive work has begun on refurbishing the rail network and power generation capabilities in the country, but diesels continue to play their significant role in hauling passenger and freight trains on the various mainlines, and At the present time the Korean State Railway operates primarily using electric and diesel power, with a wide array of locomotive types.
