Pasuruan railway station

This station is one of the most oldest train stations in East Java, commissioned by Staatsspoorwegen Oosterlijnen (East Line) on May, 16th 1878 as the end point of Surabaya-Sidoarjo-Bangil-Pasuruan line.[2] It was built not far from Hoofdstraat or de Grote Postweg (see Great Post Road) and now become Soekarno Hatta provincial road, connected by Station street which access-link from Soekarno Hatta road to this station and also there is Pasar Besar of Pasuruan located just east side, used as traditional market activity for Pasuruans. This station adopted Indische-Empire and Neoclassic decoration style.

At the past, the station had 7 tracks which one of them entered train workshop, warehouses and a locomotive turntable. And then, from first track of this station (eastern side) there was branch which connected to the light rail line or tram line belonged to a private tramway company named Pasoeroean Stoomtram Maatschappij (PsSM) which passed behind Pasar Besar of Pasuruan and entered their station (approximately around 30 to 40 meters west of the station) to Waroengdowo via Broodbakkerstraat or Chinatown (now become Niaga street). This private railway company also opened tram line from Waroengdowo to Winongan, Alkmaar (Purwosari) and Ngempit which had been deactivated.
