History[]

Building and layout[]

Cianjur Station initially had six railway tracks, including a track to the warehouse opposite the station. Since most of the Jakarta–Bandung cross trains operate via the , the number of tracks at this station is reduced to three due to lack of traffic.[4][3] The station built by Staatsspoorwegen has now been designated as a cultural heritage by the Central Unit for Conservation and Architectural Design of Kereta Api Indonesia.

Train services[]

Cianjur Station used to serve the Cianjuran train to fill the Bandung-Bogor route. However, the operation of the train was stopped in 2013 due to the unavailability of spare parts for diesel-hydraulic locomotives and subsidies from the Government through the Ministry of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia.[5]

On February 8, 2014, the station reopened with the launch of Siliwangi train.[6]
