Rancaekek Train Station

Rancaekek Station (RCK) is a station located in Rancaekek, Bandung. This station is a class I train station. The location of Rancaekek Station is on the highway connecting Rancaekek - Majalaya. Rancaekek Station is part of the Bandung Operational Area II. Rancaekek Station was also developed by the Dutch railway company, Staatsspoorwegen. One of the developments carried out by Staatsspoorwegen is the construction of the Rancaekek route to Tanjungsari. This route is made to reach plantations in the Jatinangor area. However, in 1942 during the Japanese occupation, this route was dismantled by Romusha workers. Cikuda Ring Bridge, Jatinangor Reservoir and Tanjungsari Station are some legacies of the Rancaekek - Tanjungsari route. Rancaekek Station now has three railway lines, line two is used for straight lines.

New building

Rancaekek Station is enlarging its building to the south. This section was also used as the main gate for the departure of the station. This was done because the Rancaekek area had developed into a residential area for residents on the outskirts of Bandung.

Path development

The line that crosses the Rancaekek Station has now been developed into a double track. This development was carried out to support the Jakarta - Bandung fast train access.
