IIRC, some of the trains from the East Berlin U-Bahn wound up in
revenue service on the Pyongyang Metro.

It's the fourth picture down when you click on the photos link.

Actually all rolling stock on the Pyongyang metro is from Berlin, but
there are two different types.

The box shaped ones are G stock, a narrow profile type made in East
Berlin in the 1970s/80s and still in service today:

The ones with the red/white livery are D stock, wide profile made in
West Berlin in the 1950s/60s. Some were transferred to East Berlin in
the late 1980s, and finally sold off to Korea in the 1990s.

Is there a good book in English about the Berlin S & U Bahns?
