Sinp'a Ch'ŏngnyŏn station is a railway station in Kimjŏngsuk-ŭp, Kimjŏngsuk-kun, Ryanggang Province, North Korea, on the Pukpu Line of the Korean State Railway.[1]
History
The station, originally called Sinp'a station,[2] was opened on 27 November 1987 by the Korean State Railway, along with the rest of the first eastern section of the Pukpu Line between Huju and Hyesan.[2] When the town (and county) of Sinp'a was renamed Kimjŏngsuk, the station itself was not renamed. It received its current name around 2013.
