LOL very secret country, they basically spilled everything on the internet about it. Its no more secret than Mongolia or Laos, its just not everyone knows very much about these countries.

SMGJohn do you even know which country it is (and if you will tell me is because i dont know it you are wrong because i do know it)

Not really, the driver trainer one was bulit from the Ikarus 263, which is 1 méter Longer.

Ikarus 280T was most common in Budapest on line 80 but they banned it

​@@dinabalazs8398 Dehogy tiltották be. A mai napig járnak hétköznap a 80-as és 75-ös vonalán.

Please look my newer videos from Pyongyang, this scenes here are historic now! The traffic are a lot and all trolleybusses are new...this video is a young-historic now! :-)

i just love to watch these videos about NK.beautiful scenery

hejdiklump good nature too, not over-industrialized.

Only in a few selected area's of Pyongyang, will you ever see a "very clean" city

there are no secretives in north korea, only our western media and some people like it to make it "secret". real its a normal city in a normal country with normal citytransport!

Yes lkarus from Budapesht

Yes, 315 is one of the last Ikarus 260 in service. Last years all other was removed from electric lines.

Ah, but a lot of Karosa still in service

Its normal trolleybuslife...look my videos from Ukraine...there is it standart!

Martináčku, co ty tady děláš? :-)

Let's hope he wasn't sent to the workers camp

Yes, this are older such busses! They was Dieselbusses before and was reconstructed to trolleybusses some times ago!

Ungrammatically incorrect typing, man.. The correct typing is: "..these are...", but not ...this are...; then: "...They were...", Not - "...They was...", And better to say/to type: It was... !! Go to school, moron...!!!

Ingvar Yergin He is German.Not everyone knows English well.

Don't forget ZiU from USSR.

I have seen LAZ from Ukraine. But all the other trolleybuses are from China. There is no trolleybuses from Eastern Europe.

Thanks! But this video was old and from my second visit there. now some years are gone and something are reconstructed in Pyongyang there. At my channel you find a new video from this march, as i was my 8th visit there :-)

True, but the stars on the trams and trolleybuses mean they haven't had an accident or a mechanic accident in months I believe

@@enthusiastisch1922 it is similar to soviet tradition. In those days, drivers painted such markings on their trucks and buses after reaching every 100 000 km. That was a big deal back then. This markings served as propaganga of quality of soviet vehicles and also as admiration of driver's skills in maintenance of rolling stock. As far as I can see on 17:33, korean markings are painted every 50 000 km, cause there is 50 inside each star.

We had similar trolley buses in Caracas in the mid-1970s. They ran exclusively in the older, historic, central parts of the city, and along the near-west side of the city where newcomers from the interior who hadn’t found work basically created an expansive neighborhood of improvised shacks-called _ranchitos_ in Venezuela-out of cinderblock and corrugated tin or green plastic … and when I say expansive, I mean 1/3 of Caracas along the east and south looked like a beautiful bauhaus-cum-brutalist vision of the space age, like a big concrete-and-metal jazz album cover, and the whole west side was a miles-wide maze of plastic-roofed shacks, with twisty roads and pipes spitting sewage right into the river, and some official streets which had been paved through it so the residents could reach services via public transportation, and little stores and bodegas and dance clubs some enterprising folks had built; if you’ve grown up in the U.S., I don’t think anything in your experience will have prepared you to imagine it. Boy, I got really sidetracked. ANYWAY … we had similar trolley buses in some parts of Caracas, and they drove just as slowly, so I think it may be intrinsic to the technology: maybe being attached to overhead wires, but not to tracks, means you have to drive more slowly and carefully? When we were in the old part of the city, I used to love watching them crazily spark as they hit intersections of wires-ZAP!!! [shower of sparks] ZAP ZAP!! ZAP!!!-but I’ve never seen any in-person since. As for the noise, ours were if anything noisier … but public transportation in Caracas in the ‘70s was dreadfully broken: all the buses and trolley buses were ancient and poorly maintained, there were red-striped buses and blue-striped buses, and the red-striped buses were official and took regular fares, while the blue-striped buses were just dudes who’d fixed a bus they’d found, and they’d haggle with you for fares, if you looked like you had money you could expect to pay double-although funnily by custom kids who could walk beneath the turnstile without bending at the waist rode free-and there was no subway until ‘81 or ‘82, whichever was the year after _Thriller_ debuted. We were one of the few middle class families who took public transportation, and I remember some bus floors were so rusted through you could see the street whooshing by beneath. Service ran on no particular schedule, and drivers both of official and of unofficial buses were prone to suddenly take shortcuts and skip dozens of stops with little notice, and if they skipped your stop, your only option was to accept your fate and hoof it the rest of the way. Cabs were completely unmetered until 1982 and a great deal of haggling was required to get anywhere, with renegotiations sometimes taking place mid-ride. And to fill the enormous service gaps, poor people bought beat-up passenger vans with ripped seats, got them barely working, and ran them as _camionetas,_ or unofficial buses: riding one required just intuitively knowing where a particular _camioneta_ was headed, haggling to get on, knowing a rather complex set of etiquette rules regarding where to sit depending on how much you’d paid and where you were going-since payment affected the order of the stops, or whether some stops were skipped and you were expected to get off merely near your stop-figuring out who’d paid what so you knew where to sit, since you could pay less to be dropped off merely near your stop, knowing not to make a certain hand signal indicating you were getting off-because, if you made it, you HAD to get off, no takesies-backsies-and, unfortunately, if someone got on who was a good negotiator, not even necessarily someone with more cash, the whole _camioneta_ was apt to just switch routes entirely and now you’ve spent your money AND you’re stranded somewhere unexpected. It all was an adventure, for sure … especially after my dad totaled our car, when we were living with my aunt and uncle a two-hour normal drive from my school, which via _camioneta_ and bus suddenly took three-to-FIVE hours via ever-changing routes! So anyhow, our trolley buses were as noisy, if not noisier, than the ones shown here-but the comparison may not be fair: all of Venezuela in the 1970s was just a hair’s breadth away from collapsing … and then, in 1983, we DID collapse, spectacularly! So our trolley buses in the ‘70s were creaky and noisy, but so were our buses, our _camionetas,_ and our cabs. But it was all probably owing to factors outside of the technology itself. So I don’t know if all trolley buses are noisy. But it *is* possible that all trolley buses are slow.

I filmed normal! No problem with anybody...why? Its normal to make pictures and to film like other countries! (Some people talk other, but its true to make pictures normaly!)

KT4Dani For example, in Romania, before 1989, it was difficult to film or to take pictures. You could have been arrested by "Militia", because the communists we're paranoiac. And this is why it sounds strange for me that a communist country like North Korea is so permissive. But I'm glad for your beautiful video. Have a nice Sunday!

Плохое состояние контактной сети + устаревшее электрооборудование самих машин. Еще могут быть проблемы с напряжением

@@user-kj6ej8fb9t спасибо

​@@user-kj6ej8fb9t + Старые спецчасти

Thanks, but the woman says to me, that we go some meters and talk with trolleybusdriver...so i cut the talking-scenes. It was allowed to make videos from all. In northkorea it isnt so strong with filmrecords! Its also a normal country...

no power :)

MrScotia No, but I think this should be ironic.

+MrScotia i do not think so, but i look more clean and you can see more wealth then on west

No but in kimjongland yes

MrScotia thats a normal bus Services in north korea

This video is 7 years old, no one of this older vehicles are in service. Last three years the fleet of trolleybusses was changed into a lot of new vehicles.

Thanks, i have make over 3500 pictures...its a lot for next year :D

KT4Dani Ou it´s not a few! It will take some time to even sort it. :D Did you have some problems with police or "citizens" about taking photos? And how did drivers react... did you felt some enthusiasm from them?

Bro learned how to write from a roach🏴‍☠️

no, video from 2014. now the trolleybusses are removed and new are in service

No, why? Some years ago there was not a lot cars...now thei are more than my last visit in 2011...

Yes , no more modern car in there

Looks like a 1974 model 144, as there are no ventilation windows.

Yes its one of those 1000 volvo N.K bought from sweden and never paid for.They still own sweden 3 billion Swedish krona fir products they "bought"and never payed for.

+Philipp Klein Diese Tage waren vor einem wichtigen Nationalfeiertag und die ganze Stadt war damit beschäftigt sämtliche Infrastrukturen aufzufrischen und in Ordnung zu bringen. An diesem Vormittag wurden Fahrbahnmarkierungen auf der Okryu-Brücke neu nachgezogen, was an der vorliegenden kreuzung einen Stau mit sich brachte. Daher blieben die O-busse zeitweise auf der Brücke stehen, um dann bei Freigabe immer in einem Schwung durch die "Baustelle" zu rollen! :-)

Yes, in some curves and switches the driver oull of the pantograph ;)

the trolleybusses where iam be inside are hired from me for a fototravel

He is not allowed to interact with the general population so he gets his own trolleybus.

Hast du Dir das Video angesehen? Wie sind denn sonst die Innenaufnahmen entstanden, wenn ich nicht mitgefahren wäre? :-D

KT4Dani Jaja, ich meine aber im regulären Linienverkehr! Und kommt es nur so rüber oder fahren die Busse fast überall ziemlich langsam? oO

Im Linienverkehr ist das für Touristen nicht möglich! Habe die Fahrten alle als Sonderfahrt organisiert.

why hurry?

I think it's for horrible condition of wires, trolleys... most of them are older than 30, 40 years.

Mostly because these are old as ancient

Uritsky trolleybuses. Russia has lots of them for a reason.

***** Die Sitze sitz importierte Arianne-Sitze, wie man sie auch hier kennt. Die T4D aus Leipzig, Dresden und Magdeburg besitzen in Pyongyang immernoch die Originalbestuhlung!

***** Bitte, doch seit der Reise überstürzen sich die Nachfragen...manchmal braucht man etwas Ruhe davon... ;)

Колёса квадратные жы!! )) Состояние техническое - аховое, запчастей нет-это Сев.Корея!

Stay at street and film! :-)

+jayjay2016 no, its legal like all other also!

KT4Dani ok thx

All know about the Karosa-reconstruction to trolleybusses! The 15Tr in Europa was produced in Ostrov and not in Plzen!

Yes, but Skoda Plzen is mother company. Ostrov is manufacturing plant owned by Skoda Plzen. ŠKODA TRANSPORTATION a.s.Emila Škody 2922/1301 00 PLZEŇČeská republika

i know the backgrounds to this company!

No offense. Just in case.

PainoX Filmen und Fotografieren darfst du überall (Ausnahme wie Ostblocktypisch nur nicht das Militär nicht)...fotografieren ist in Pyongyang allgegenwärtig. Es sind immer nur UNSERE Westmedien, welches diese veraltete "denken" aktiv halten, sodass wir in einen negativen Denkfluss kommen! Das Land ist offener als es die meisten hier denken...eben weil die meisten Dokus immerwieder die alte Soße auffrischen, welche schon mehr als verjährt ist! Kurz gesagt: JA, du darfst einfach so filmen! :-)

Я тоже охренел, когда увидел её в Северной Корее

В Юной Корее тоже так себе живут. Жили бы хорошо, не были бы одни из первых в Азии по суицидам и потребляемого алкоголя на душу населения.

Mostly being ancient and a law

On overwire-switch the trolleybus catch the wrong direction...so the driver try to change manual...but the other wire are in the way! So it comes to lightening and sparks...but at end the cable was broken

That's the worst nightmare of trolleybus driver. No.3 One or both poles did not go the right split. (break, hazard light (optional ;) ), and drag the pole(s) to the right line. No.2 power went out (just beautiful view along the main street with dozens of trolleybuses and drivers chilling on the side lol) No.1 is 3:54, when the pole got jammed near the switch because there were multiple overhead cables and power lines... as a pole pushes upwards naturally, once it does not catch the power line, it shoots straight up. This is the one that the pole somehow finds a way to shoot through between the gaps and it is impossible to recover it by driver himself cuz it's like a one-way street. The other situation I have witnessed included: pole pulled overhead lines down as the trolleybus was going at a high speed and though driver broke immediately, so cables dangled closer to the ground; and once the connector between pole and overhead linewent loose after the pole slipped from the overhead cable.

in 2014 maybe...but a lot are changed there last years.
