'''Mangu station''' is a station on the [[Gyeongui–Jungang Line]], and the [[Gyeongchun Line]] since 21 December 2010. The station was Seoul's main distribution center of [[charcoal]] [[briquettes]] in the 1950s and 1960s, extracted and manufactured in southern [[Gangwon-do (South Korea)|Gangwon province]]. These briquettes were widely used by people to weather harsh winters when Korea was a [[developing country]] and recovering from the [[Korean War]]. It is a station that still predominantly handles [[freight trains]]. It is very close to an E-Mart and Costco stores.

Although it is located close to the Sangbong bus terminal and [[Sangbong station]], it has yet to fulfill its potential as a [[transportation hub]]. With the electrification and double tracking of the Gyeongchun Line, this station is the newly designated western terminus station (however, the Gyeongchun Line operates about 1&nbsp;km west further till its ''de facto'' terminus, [[Sangbong station|Sangbong]]).
