Dzhankoi railway station (Russian: Джанкой, Ukrainian: Джанкой, Crimean Tatar: Canköy) is a station in Dzhankoi, one of the biggest railway stations of Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine, but de facto under control and administration of Russia.^[4]

History

The station opened in 1874 in the route Melitopol — Simferopol. In 1892, the station became a hub.

The railway junction was twice destroyed during the Civil and Great Patriotic wars. In 2006-2007 the station was renovated and divided into two parts: the commuter station and the main. Suburban station was built from scratch using high platforms (to stop the trains^{[dubious – discuss]}) and turnstile system. After the reconstruction of the building and the area of the main station — the place has become popular among residents.^[5]

As of 26 March 2014 Dzhankoi was one of two (along with Sevastopol) stations of the Crimea Railway, which used an automated system of control over fares.
