Bogor Station Location in Java |
The station was first commissioned as the terminus for Jakarta-Buitenzorg (Bogor's previous name) service in 1872. The current building was built in 1881. It was built in the style of Neoclassical architecture.[2] In 20 October 2016, KRL Commuterline unveiled a new 570 square meter hall built in front of the station. This expansion was built mainly to maximize the passenger flow and to separate both incoming and outgoing passengers.[3][4]
This station used to serve intercity trains. Nowadays, the intercity services have moved from this station to the nearby Bogor Paledang station.
