Wonokromo railway station, Railway station in Jagir district, Surabaya, Indonesia.
Wonokromo railway station is a transport hub in Surabaya with five tracks and four platforms serving passenger routes across East Java. The facility connects travelers to multiple train services linking the city with surrounding towns and regions.
The station was built in 1880 by the Dutch colonial railway company Staatsspoorwegen to support cargo movement along a major route. It developed during a period of railway expansion throughout the Dutch East Indies.
The station building incorporates Dutch architectural elements with tall supporting pillars and decorative andesite stone walls that reflect colonial design.
The station is located in the southern part of the city and is accessible by various public transport options. Visitors should expect crowds during peak hours and allow extra time for boarding and movement.
An old locomotive warehouse on the northern side shows the region's railway history. The adjacent Darmo Trade Center opposite the main entrance marks an interesting blend of historical and contemporary uses.
