It is not known when the line from Wŏnsan (actually, the line branches off from Tŏgwŏn) to Songdowŏn was opened, but the Songdowŏn−Segil section was opened on 23 September 2014, with a special ceremonial train marking the opening; this inaugural train was pulled by a Sŏngun Red Flag-class locomotive.[1]

Songdowŏn is the site of the Songdowŏn International Children's Union Camp, and at Segil there is a resort.
