The
train service in Korea
is provided and operated
by the Korean National Railroad (KORAIL). Tourists
can use this fast,
safe and reliable
service with very
reasonable prices.
Trains are operated
by strict schedules,
and there is no delay
or traffic jam like
traveling by automobile,
so that you can get
your destination on
time at any time of
the year. KORAIL's
routes literally cover
all over the country,
and there are three
kinds of trains being
operated: the Super-Express
Saemaeul-ho, Express
Mugunghwa-ho, and
Limited Express Tongil-ho.
The
Super-Expresss Saemaeul-ho
This train service
provides various services
for passengers: clean
and spacious seats,
the fastest train
speed, pay-phone service,
and tables for notebook
computers on seats.
For these reasons,
so many business people
like to use the Super-Express
Saemaul-ho, yet it
is the most expensive
train service. The
train is divided with
the first- and second-class
sections, and passengers
can also use the dinning
room section of the
train.
The
Express Mugunghwa-ho
Most passengers prefer
Mugunghwa-ho to go
from one city to another
city. It also provides
a very clean and comfortable
service to passengers
with most routes.
The train is divided
with the first- and
second-class sections.
