Chŏngbang Station is a railway station located in Sariwŏn, North Hwanghae province, North Korea.[1] It is on located on the P'yŏngbu Line, which was formed from part of the Kyŏngŭi Line to accommodate the shift of the capital from Seoul to P'yŏngyang; though this line physically connects P'yŏngyang to Pusan via Dorasan, in operational reality it ends at Kaesŏng due to the Korean Demilitarized Zone.[1]
Until 1956, the station was called Kyedong Station. It is located near the well-known tourist sites of Mt. Chŏngbang, Chŏngbang Fortress and the Sŏngbul-sa Buddhist temple.
