Nambo Station (NMO)[1] is a railway station located in Bantar Jati, Klapanunggal, Bogor Regency. Together with three other stations located on this line, it was only inaugurated in 1997, which makes it one of the newest station in the network. At the beginning, this line was planned to be incorporated into a larger circular line network, ranging from Cikarang, via Jonggol to Parung Panjang.[5] This plan had to be postponed due to the 1997 economic crisis.[4]

To fill the empty route, PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Indonesian Railway Company) operated DMU (KRD) Tanah Abang-Nambo line in 2002. This route only lasted until 2006 due to the very old rolling stock and large number of ticketless passengers that caused PT KAI's revenue leakage.[4]

In 2012, PT KAI began to reactivate this railway line. This 12.6 km line was also electrified in order to let trains from Jakarta Commuter Line service run from Citayam branch.[6]

Since 4 December 2013, PT KAI launched a freight train for cement transportation from Nambo to Kalimas Station in Surabaya, East Java.[7][8] In its development, the train route was then extended to Ketapang. On 1 April 2015, this station began serving the KRL Commuterline for the Nambo-Depok/Angke route ten times a day.[3] The station is now served by a branch service of Bogor Line that branches of Citayam since network's overhaul on 28 May 2022.
