Trains cross between Koreas...

For the first time in over 50 years, trains have crossed between North and South Korea, on two restored tracks between the countries.

However, any travellers looking forward to easy access to the North are advised not to hold their breath; this was just a one-off trial, with no guarantee on any further trips.

Meanwhile, The Independent uses a bit of artistic licence to envisage a future where we can travel from Inverness to Seoul, entirely by train.
