DMZ Train (aka Peace Train, Korean: 평화열차) is a South Korean excursion train operated by Korail. The train began operations in 2014 and transports tourists from Seoul to train terminals closest to the Korean Demilitarized Zone.[1][2] The service was suspended in 2019 and has not yet resumed operation. Due to the aging issue of the trains, the DMZ Train ended its operation on 28 December 2023.
