Stasiun Belatung (BLT)

Belatung Station (BLT), located in the Ogan Komering Ulu Regency of South Sumatra, serves as a vital Class II facility within the Indonesian railway network under the jurisdiction of Divisi Regional IV Tanjungkarang. Situated at an elevation of 38 meters above sea level, the station stands as a testament to the region’s colonial-era infrastructure development, which was primarily engineered to facilitate the efficient transport of natural resources and agricultural commodities. Its architectural heritage reflects the functional design principles characteristic of early 20th-century railway engineering, maintaining a structural integrity that has allowed it to remain a cornerstone of local transit history.

The station features a functional yard configuration designed to manage the heavy logistical demands of the southern Sumatra rail corridor. By serving as a critical node for both freight and passenger transit, Belatung plays an essential role in connecting remote inland areas to major economic hubs.
