Yes! There are a whole series of posts with photos and maps. Click the red "Tumangan, we are coming!!!" link at the bottom of the first post to jump to the next one, etc.

Thanks. I didn't realise the red text was a hyperlink either.
To save anyone else the hassle, this is where he finally crosses into NK:

What hassle are you talking about? Reading about the trip?

Keep going and going and going. There are a lot of trains (of course) but once you get past that there are a lot of very interesting photos, especially the shows that look extravagent and unique. This guy documents his trips well!
Hope it is backed up well (guess on the archive sites).
