Komusan Station is a railway station in Komusal-lodongjagu, Puryŏng,
North Hamgyŏng province, North Korea. It is the junction point of the Hambuk and Musan lines of the Korean State Railway.^[1]

The station was opened in 1917 by the Government Railways of Chosen(朝鮮総督府鉄道), at the same time as the rest of the Ch'ŏngjin-Hoeryŏng section of the former Hamgyŏng Line; from 1934 to 1940 it was managed by the South Manchuria Railway. The station was destroyed during the Second World War; after the Korean War, it was refurbished with Soviet and Chinese assistance.
