How are you?. I am a south korean working for Korean National Railroads(KNR). I have a work assignment from KNR which is Korean-government owned company and operates Korean railroads. The assignment is reseach on inter-korean railroad connecting. Two Korea, South and North Korea, are now connecting their seperated lines. If the line is connected, the cargos from south Korea will go to Europe by train thru China or/and Russia. If that comes real, we will make big profits. South Korean government is preparing for that. My assignment is to learn from American companies on how to handle cargos and logistics, how to transact and inter-connect between Mexico and American companies or between America and Canada, how to manage railroad human resouces, and safety. We plan to visit America and Mexico this coming July for 30 or 40 days. I want to attend seminars, meetings, training or education on any railroad fields. I also want to visit railroad companies which operate freight or passenger train. Would any of you recommend seminars, education or training for that which will be held in America during that time? Or would you invite us to your company or give us information on those companies for our favor? I can give information Korean or Japanese railroad information? we are team of three persons. If you help me, I will deeply appreciate for that.
Lee, Wonyoung.

Wonyoung, the Association of American Railroads may be of assistance: http://www.aar.org/ I met a visiting Korean on the U.S. California Zephyr passenger train in Dec 2002. I asked him to take some photos of me with my camera. Hope this helps. . . -- JohnPosts: 190 | From: Fort Worth, Texas | Registered: Dec 2002
