Cirebon Station (Indonesian: Stasiun Cirebon, Station Code: CN) also known as Cirebon Kejaksan Station is the main railway station in the Cirebon area located on Siliwangi Street, Kebonbaru, Kejaksan, Cirebon City, West Java Province.[2] The station is located at DAOP 3 area as North Cross Line, but in this station there is also cross line in Purwokerto Station which is connected by South Cross Line in Kroya Station. Therefore, most of the trains both north and south lines stopped at this station, except economy class train which is stop at .[3] [4]
As a transfer station, Cirebon Station is one-side station where the emplacement is located one side linearly with station building.
Staatsspoorwegen (SS) began to instill its influence in Cirebon since the late 1900's. The existing line in Cikampek was then extended to attract customers in Cirebon. On 3 June 1912, the Cikampek to Cirebon railroad was completed and was part of the construction of the railroad to Purwokerto and Kroya. The route to Cirebon is used to connect the SS line with the Semarang–Cheribon Stoomtram Maatschappij (SCS) line.[5] On 1 November 1914, the two stations connected successfully.[6] [7]
The current building of Cirebon Station was the work of a Dutch architect Pieter Adriaan Jacobus Moojen. The architecture of the building follows the Dutch Rationalist conformed into the tropics, becoming a new vernacular style sometimes dubbed the New Indies Style. In 1984, this station was painted white.[8]
In 2011, Cirebon and stations were renovated by elevating the platforms, increasing the number of lanes and the existing facilities.[9] [10]
Cirebon Station has six tracks plus one line that is connected to the locomotive depot and train depot which are located on the northeast side of the station complex. Initially, line 2 was a straight line in the direction of Cikampek–Jakarta and in the direction of Tegal, while line 3 was a straight line branching from and towards Prupuk-Kroya. After the double track to Haurgeulis Station became operational in 2003, line 3 was also used as a double track straight line from Cikampek–Jakarta.
In 2011, the station was renovated by elevating the station platform and overhauling the layout of existing tracks and facilities. In addition, the branch for the route to Purwokerto–Kroya was moved to Cirebon Prujakan Station—the branch remains controlled at Cirebon Station. Line 2 is fully used as a straight rail for the direction of Cikampek-Jakarta, while line 3 is fully used as a straight rail for the direction of Tegal or Prupuk-Kroya. In addition, the rail track between the two stations is used as a double single track or twin tracks. The old electrical signaling system has been replaced with a new signaling produced by GRS.
To connect the lines at this station, an underground tunnel is provided so that passengers do not have to directly cross the railroad tracks to reach their intended track.
