Sejong sits in central South Korea between Daejeon, Cheongju, and Gongju, using a two-station rail pattern rather than one large city terminal. Jochiwon Station is inside Sejong on the Gyeongbu Line, while nearby Osong Station in Cheongju acts as the main high-speed rail access point for trains to Sejong. Korail and SR are the key operators for rail travel linked to the city.
High-speed KTX and SRT services use Osong Station, which connects with Sejong by local road and bus transfers. Jochiwon Station handles Korail intercity and regional services such as ITX-Saemaeul and Mugunghwa trains on conventional lines. Together, these stations cover long-distance high-speed travel, regional rail, and transfers between the central administrative area and the national network.
Rail routes linked to Sejong run north toward Seoul and the capital area, south toward Daejeon, Daegu, and Busan, southwest toward Gwangju and Mokpo via high-speed corridors, and regionally through Cheonan and Chungcheong towns. Book trains from and to Sejong online at Rail Monsters.
