Is this a trolleybus design proposal by Seung-Hyuk Cha (to be produced by the Pyongyang Trolleybus Factory)?

727 · February 17, 2021, 05:19:59 PM

I have no name attributed to the designer, only the name of the trolleybus itself.

Is the name a reference to a place, such as 조선 or 평양 ?

727 · February 17, 2021, 11:55:05 PM

In one particular instance, it could be called a place.

gte4289 · February 18, 2021, 12:18:56 PM

The name given in this image appears to be "Buheung" (부흥), meaning 'Renaissance' or 'Revival'.
