Padang Station (PD) is a railway station of the Pulau Aie–Padang Panjang railway and Teluk Bayur–Padang railway located at Jl. Stasiun No. 1, Simpang Haru, Eastern Padang, Padang, West Sumatra.
Staatsspoorwegen ter Sumatra's Westkust (SSS), a division of Staatsspoorwegen, was built a railroad in West Sumatra based on a concession issued by the Dutch East Indies government which was approved by the Dutch parliament in September 1887. Construction began on 6 July 1889 [2] to connect Padang with the well-known Ombilin coal mine in Sawahlunto. [3] In detail, the railroad line consists of Emmahaven ( Teluk Bayur)-Padang Station which was inaugurated on 1 October 1892, and Pulau Aie– Padang Panjang on 1 July 1891. [4]
Padang Station currently serves Sibinuang train to and from Pariaman and Naras and, since 2018, Minangkabau Express airport train to and from Minangkabau International Airport dedicated station. [5] Presently the railroad to Pulau Aie which starts from track 1 has been reactivated and the expansion of the station building has been carried out. [6]
