Far out, man! As for the traffic signal lights, it is similar to what ingo spotted during his North Korean visit: North Korean Traffic Signal Light (German made). My comments at Internet Movie Light Bulb Database -- Last edit: 2013-01-25 16:26:24 |

http://pics.imcdb.org/8212/a6.7.jpg Wort to list, too, as it seems a rare version. Haven't we it already here somewhere? Oh, the stairs-truck at the same location /vehicle_526755.html still need its identification! Btw: the old terminal building is already demolished. |

@ingo: The war museum has been closed for reconstruction since October. Ordinary tourists did visit it before it closed - there are plenty of photos from tourists on Flick. Link to "nkleadershipwatch.wordpress.com" -- Last edit: 2013-01-25 20:21:07 |

@Gag: that's not completely true. There's a new building in construction, here my pic from the 10.October 2012 but the old one is still existing and open - but not for us crummy tourists. I asked for a visit, because I saw pictures of the exhibition on every Kim Jong Un-related collage-presentation (provisional made, but existing in every hotel lounge) (far left, second line above the bottom), but I was told, that it's not possible for us. -- Last edit: 2013-01-25 21:35:35 |

Yes, I've read it. Accidentally I heared also a radio-interview with the conductor. Today I've stated to read the book from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Hyon_Hui |

Perhaps someone will be able to track down the film about her: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayumi_%28film%29 I'd be interested if it has self-cobbled fake North Korean locations. P.S. Apparently it's rubbish: Link to "masterleemovies.wordpress.com" -- Last edit: 2013-01-27 16:59:54 |

the pics on the Flickr-link are from October 2012. But it was not our flight. There they used both stair-trucks, the still not identified old Japanese one for the front door, the blue Mercedes for the back door. Unfortunately we used the back door and there were many officials around (there must have been some DPRK-VIP at our flight), so it ws not possible for me to check the old stairs-truck for identifying and taking a pic |

@kegare: have you seen this website: http://ninalookingatthings.wordpress.com/ before? Looks very interesting, it seems to be made by a member of the local nomenklatura. |
