Kutoarjo Station (KTA) is a large type A railway station located in Kutoarjo District, Purworejo Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. The station is located at an altitude of +16 meters and is the easternmost active station operated by Operation Area V Purwokerto.
Kutoarjo Station was opened on 20 July 1887, along with the opening of ––Kutoarjo– mainline and the 12 km Kutoarjo– branch line.[2] The Purworejo branch line was closed in 2010, and over time the line was used to store disused sliding-roof wagons. The line was planned to be reactivated by late 2023, and beginning in June 2023 the disused wagons were scrapped.[3]
Kutoarjo Station has eight railway lines. Initially the line 2 was a straight line, however after the completion of double track line to Surabaya/Malang in 2007[4] and was opened on 22 January 2008,[5] the line 3 was used as the straight line for double track towards Surabaya/Malang as well as the main line for the single track towards Jakarta/Bandung, while line 2 is used as the straight line for double track towards Surabaya/Malang and also used for shunting line.
After the opening of double track line to Station on 30 November 2019, line 2 was used as the straight line towards, while line 3 was used as the straight line only to and from Surabaya/Malang. Lines 4 and 5 are used to accommodate trains departing from the station,[6] while line 6 is usually utilized to store out-of-service trains and for shunting. To the east of the line 1 there is a junction for the branch line towards, however the branch line was closed in 2010 and then was used to store disused sliding-roof wagons.
The current station building is not of the original Colonial era building, except for the platform canopy over line 1 to 3 along with some of the doors and wall facing to the platform 1. Kutoarjo Station original building is thought to have a similar architecture to Station. The station building was renovated and altered to tackle overcrowding due to high passenger traffic.[7]
To the east of the station there is a passenger coach depot and a locomotive shed. To the south of the station there are two lines for storing and washing the passenger coaches, while the lines itself lead to a turntable.
