The opening date can be verified: https://unibook.unikorea.go.kr/material/...-194235

This is the south Korean repository of a Rodong Sinmun article, (which unfortunately, only searches titles) and says that the Onsong-Wangjaesan trolleybus was opened. The article is dated 16th January, 1996, so the trolleybus probably opened a day earlier.

Yes. By the way, the date seems to be 1998, not 1988

A truly unique find, many thanks for this photo.

Цитата (jiachen, 19.02.2021):
> in this photo (http://www.cybernk.net/common/ImgPopup2....irect=1) does it show a trolleybus overhead? It is in Yonsan County, North Korea.

It looks like a trolleybus overhead, but somehow reminds me more of a feeder line, rather than actual overhead. Possibly due to low quality of photo.

Hello Yury,
in this photo (http://www.cybernk.net/common/ImgPopup2....irect=1) does it show a trolleybus overhead? It is in Yonsan County, North Korea.
Thanks.

Excellent find. Many thanks for the photo.

A 4 km-long bidirectional single-wire-set trolleybus line between the Onsong Railway Station and the Wangjaesan Monument to to the northeast of the city. The installation's likely intent is for the purpose of delivering visitors to the monument. According to an verified source the line likely opened in 1996. The line is most likely mothballed from at least 2004 (or earlier), but nevertheless maintained in decent condition.

Однопутная троллейбусная линия длиной 4 км. между ж.д. вкозалом в городе Онсон и монументом Вынджэсан к северо-востоку от города. Линия вероятнее всего используется для подвозки посетителей к монументу. Согласно неподтверждённому источнику, линия предположительно открыта в 1996 г. Линия предположительно законсервирована, как минимум, начиная с 2004 г. (или ранее), но при этом поддерживается в адекватном состоянии.
