The Ch'ŏngjinhang Line, or Ch'ŏngjin Port Line, is an electrified freight-only railway line of the Korean State Railway in North Korea, connecting Ch'ŏngjin Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station at the southern junction of the P'yŏngra and Hambuk lines with Ch'ŏngjin Port.

History

Originally called Ch'ŏngjinbudu Line or Ch'ŏngjin Wharf Line, it was originally opened on 1 July 1940 by the Chosen Government Railway, running from the former site of Ch'ŏngjin Station to Ch'ŏngjinbudu Station. The length of the line to the port was increased to on 1 February 1942, when the original station at Ch'ŏngjin was closed and a new station, today's Ch'ŏngjin Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station, was opened.
