P'unggye station is a railway station in P'unggye-ri, Kilju county, North Hamgyŏng province, North Korea, on the Paektusan Ch'ŏngnyŏn Line of the Korean State Railway.[1]
The station, along with the rest of the Kilju–Hapsu section, was opened by the Chosen Government Railway (朝鮮総督府鉄道) on 1 November 1933.[2]
On 9 October 2006 an underground nuclear test was conducted at the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site, causing the closure of the line for 3–4 months.[3]
