According to report North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's trip to Vietnam for a summit with U.S and President Donald Trump was shrouded in mystery until a green train with yellow horizontal stripes was spotted crossing the Yalu river into China on Saturday evening. Meanwhile Kim, his father and grandfather, North Korea's three leaders in succession since World War II, have all loved trains, but no one knew how Kim intended to make the journey to Hanoi for his second summit with Trump, on Wednesday and Thursday, until the train rumbled over the border bridge.
Furthermore it is not clear if Kim will travel all the way to Vietnam by rail it will take him some two and a half days to do so and it is possible he could stop on the way and fly and apparently if he does choose to stay on the tracks, he will be traveling in style. Reportedly his train resembles the armored ones his father, Kim Jong Il, and grandfather, Kim Il Sung, used over the years.
Moreover the train also has satellite phone connections so Kim can keep abreast of developments and issue orders, according to state television. Reports added it also has a carriage loaded with his Mercedes Benz vehicle and the train can reach speeds of up to 80 kph (50 mph) on China's network, compared with a maximum of about 45 kph (28 mph) on North Korea's tracks, Ahn said Peace train, War train.
