This is freedom bridge.  Behind the barbed wire fence is the only railroad that connects North and South Korea.  Of course it isn't in use.  There is a locomotive located in the middle of the DMZ on the train tracks that hasn't been moved in 50 years.  It was the last train to make, or attempt, to make the passage.  The DMZ is one of the most well preserved nature wildlife refuges in the world.  This is due to the fact that almost no one has been in the DMZ for 50 years and hence there has been no development.  Environmentalists are concerned that if North and South Korea ever unite, this area will become developed and will become threatened.  At the end of the bridge behind Kevin and myself is a little shop that sells North Korean liquor.  I don't think it was real, but they claim it is.
