===Museum=== Pyongyang Metro has its own museum. A large portion of the collection is related to President [[Kim Il Sung]] providing "[[on-the-spot guidance]]" to the workers constructing the system. Among the exhibits are a special [[funicular]]-like vehicle which the president used to descend to a station under construction (it rode down the inclined tunnels that would eventually be used by the escalators), and a [[railbus]] in which he rode around the system.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://vienna-pyongyang.blogspot.com/2008/09/demilitarized-zone.html|script-title=ko:The forbidden railway: Vienna - Pyongyang μ - λͺ¨μ€ν¬λ° - λλ§κ° - νμ|work=vienna-pyongyang.blogspot.com|date=23 September 2008|access-date=20 January 2013|archive-date=21 January 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130121074147/http://vienna-pyongyang.blogspot.com/2008/09/demilitarized-zone.html|url-status=live|language=en}}</ref><ref>Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211205/FxjNF8ebN1g Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20150630121719/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxjNF8ebN1g Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{cite web| url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxjNF8ebN1g| title = Pyongyang Metro Museum | website=[[YouTube]]| date = 3 August 2010 }}{{cbignore}}</ref> The museum also has a map of the planned lines; it shows the Chollima and Hyoksin line terminating at a common station near Chilgol, the third line that would cross the Taedong River, eventually terminating near Rakrang and the locations of the depots, one far past the western terminus of the Hyoksin line and the depot in Sopo for the Chollima line.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Pyongyang β Metro museum|url=https://transphoto.org/articles/3893/|access-date=2021-03-19|website=transphoto.org|language=en}}</ref>
