The debarkation points should be at Weihai port of the Shandong Province and Pyongtaek port of Kyonggi-Do, according to a China-ROK joint study issued at a seminar hosted by China's traffic and transportation association and the Northeast Asia Economic Forum in Weihai.

The study said a more efficient and low-cost international logistic network was needed urgently as the bilateral trade and economic cooperation between China and the ROK grew rapidly.

Once completed, the railway ferry will be able to provide highly efficient logistical service to the two countries and help the ROK explore a land transportation corridor to Europe via China, according to the study, which was jointly conducted by China's traffic and transportation association and ROK's boko economic institution.
