Taebaeksansong Station is a passenger railway station in Pyongsan County, North Korea. It is located on the Pyongbu Line, which was formed from part of the Kyongui Line to accommodate the shift of the capital from Seoul to Pyongyang. Though this line theoretically connects Pyongyang to Pusan, in reality it ends at Kaesong due to the Korean Demilitarized Zone.

The station is located near the ruins of the famous Taebaeksan Fortress, from which it gets its name.
