Korea Railroad Corporation (Korail) stated that it has resumed service on the Jeolla Line between Jeonju and Iksan, which had been halted due to a freight train derailment at about 7:01 a.m. on the 10th.
Earlier that day, at around 4:30 a.m., one wheel on the rear of a freight car carrying cargo derailed while in transit from Jeonju Station in North Jeolla Province, causing the service on the Jeolla Line between Jeonju and Iksan to be suspended.
The service resumed after about 2 hours and 30 minutes following the accident.
A Korail official noted that the accident caused disruptions for two KTX trains operating on that route, saying, "Passengers were transported using two buses."
