The Kanggye Line is an electrified narrow gauge line of the North Korean State Railway running from Kanggye on the Manp'o Line to Rangrim.[1] An interesting feature of the line is a significant switchback west of Rangrim.

A yellow background in the "Distance" box indicates that section of the line is not electrified; a pink background indicates that section is narrow gauge (762 mm); an orange background indicates that section is non-electrified narrow gauge.
