Danyang is a rail town on South Korea's Jungang Line, positioned between Jecheon and Yeongju in the inland corridor linking the Seoul area with northern Gyeongbuk. The city has one main passenger train station, Danyang Station, and Korail operates the intercity and regional services that stop there. The station gives Danyang a direct role on the upgraded central rail axis rather than on the main Gyeongbu high-speed corridor.
Trains from Danyang include KTX-Eum services on the Jungang Line, ITX-Maum intercity trains, and Mugunghwa regional services. Danyang Station handles reserved long-distance trains as well as slower regional stopping services, making it the main train station for passengers moving between North Chungcheong, Gangwon, and Gyeongbuk by rail.
Routes from Danyang run northwest toward Jecheon, Wonju, Yangpyeong, and Cheongnyangni in Seoul, and southeast toward Punggi, Yeongju, Andong, and other Jungang Line cities. Train tickets are most useful for travel on this inland north-south corridor, with transfers at Cheongnyangni or Jecheon for wider Korail connections.
