Officials from the two Koreas are beginning railway inspections north of the border today.
According to Seoul's Unification Ministry, South and North Korean officials will inspect rail lines along North Korea's eastern coast.
The authorities will check the section between Mount Kumgang and the Military Demarcation Line... and hold a meeting afterwards.
Seoul is sending a 15-member delegation led by the railway bureau chief of the transport ministry... and Pyongyang is sending a six-member delegation headed by a senior official from its railway ministry.
The move comes as Seoul and Pyongyang agreed to modernize railways in North Korea as well as those that cut across the inter-Korean border at their railway talks last month.
