Wang Phong railway station is a railway station located in Wang Phong Subdistrict, Pran Buri District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, Thailand. It is a class 2 railway station located 232.924 kilometres (144.7 mi) from Thon Buri railway station. This station is located nearest to Thanarat Military Base (Infantry Centre), thus, many military trains end here.

In the past,[when?] Wang Phong was a water and fueling point as it is located near the Pranburi River. This station also used to have a locomotive depot, and a turntable for the mixed train Thon Buri-Pran Buri, but now all structures have been demolished.

Ho mok (steamed curry) is the signature dish of Wang Phong railway station. When the train stops, vendors peddle their wares along the platforms and carriages.[1]
