History

The station was opened on 13 May 1916 by the Mitsui Mining Railway, which became the Kaech'ŏn Light Railway  in 1927; the Kaech'ŏn Light Railway was subsequently taken over by the Chosen Government Railway on 1 November 1932.[3]

Services

Five long-distance passenger services stop at Kaech'ŏn station: express trains between Haeju and Manp'o and between P'yŏngyang and Hŭich'ŏn, semi-express trains between Sinŭiju and Ch'ŏngjin, and a long-distance stopping train between Sinŭiju and Hŭich'ŏn.[1] Further, there are four pairs of daily commuter trains between Sunch'ŏn and Kaech'ŏn.[2]
