The location of this station is right across the Alun-alun Jombang. All trains passing the Kertosono-Surabaya Gubeng must stop at this station.

Building and layout

Jombang Station initially had nine train lines with line 2 being a straight line, but only lines 1–3 were used frequently. After double track operated from this station to Baron as of 30 October 2019 and then until Mojokerto as of 26 October 2020, the track layout was changed. The old line 4 has been dismantled to expand the middle platform, leaving only eight lanes. Line 2 is used as a straight line in the Kertosono direction, line 3 is used as a straight line for Wonokromo, and the old line 8 which was previously a turning line is changed to the new line 7 as a badug track. In addition, a new canopy was added to cover the new line 4 and the old electric signaling system (Ansaldo type) has been replaced with the latest electric signaling produced by PT Len Industri.

This station is equipped with a waiting room (there is an executive waiting room) and a platform that is high enough to make it easier for passengers to get on and off the train.

From this station, there used to be a fork to the north from line 1 to Ploso – Babat and from the old line 5 to Kediri via Pare.
