Hekou North railway station (Chinese: 河口北站; pinyin: Hékǒu běi zhàn) is a railway station in Hekou Town, the county seat of Hekou Yao Autonomous County in Yunnan Province of China. It is the southern end of the standard-gauge Kunming–Yuxi–Hekou Railway. It also is connected by meter-gauge tracks to the meter-gauge Kunming–Hekou railway (the Chinese section of the international Kunming–Hai Phong railway), thus serving as a linking point between Vietnam's meter-gauge rail network and China's standard-gauge network.[1]
