Pyongsan Station is the central railway station for Pyongsan County, North Korea. It serves two railway lines - the Pyongbu Line, which connects Pyongyang to Kaesong (and, formerly, Busan) and the Chongnyon Ichon Line, which runs from Pyongsan to Sepo where it connects to the Kangwon Line.

History

The station was opened by the Japanese in the early 1900s as Heizan Station, and was located on the Gyeongui Line, now split between the Pyongbu Line in the north and Gyeongui Line in the south.
