Binjai Station, (BIJ)—formerly known as Timbang Langkat Station—is railway station located in Binjai, Indonesia, in the area near Binjai Bus station. The station is located at an elevation of 29.3m (96.1feet), and is situated in the Regional Division Railway I North Sumatra and Aceh. Unlike most other stations in North Sumatra which have different architecture, Binjai station remains a colonial-style building from the time of its first construction.
Binjai station has no rail service towards Besitang because this railroad was closed. In addition, the station no longer serves for the transportation of goods. In 2016, there were plans to reactivate the railway to connect Medan to Banda Aceh; it was expected to be operational in 2017. In the past, there were four stations between Medan: Binjai, namely as Sikambing, Sunggal, Sungai Semayang, and Diski station.
Previously, Binjai station had crossroads between Besitang and Kuala. But the railway to Kuala remains only in traces now.[3]
Binjai station used to have six railway tracks, but nowadays only 3 tracks remain. At the north end of the station, there is a water tower, and there are also still two water cranes remaining for steam locomotives in the far north and south of the station.
At late 2020, the mechanical signaling system at this station has been replaced with an electrical signaling system produced by Len Industri.
