Seoul Sagas: December 21, 2012 part one


Recommended Posts

Went out to foam over express trains... and a new extension on the Gyeongui Line that opened in early December 2012. These pictures show the action I found before the express trains. Enjoy!

 

Sucks that only Myrtle Ave. on the (L) has this... but here in Korea, this is popular!

A new sign... for a new extension:

An adjacent regional rail train yard next to the Gyeongui Line platforms:

And the Gyeongui Line tracks... there are two branches, with the right one being the more frequent one (to the new extension):

Heading (north)west on a train to Susaek, where I would wait for the express action:

I would find this regional rail train yard, and would take some view pictures of it before finding the express runs:

The station I was at before (Digital Media City) is quite a short distance away!

This was the six-car train, which I found out was actually a new train!

The new extension's last station is called "Gongdeok," which already exists on 3 other lines...

And a lol (sorry about the graininess; I was trying to increase the brightness because it was very dark):

 

 

 

 

Stay tuned for more!
