Lüleburgaz railway station (Turkish: Lüleburgaz istasyonu) is a station in the village Durak, Turkey. Despite carrying the town's name, the station is located about 5.9 km (3.7 mi) south of Lüleburgaz.[1] Ever since the station was opened, a settlement began around its vicinity, which later became the village of Durak. TCDD Taşımacılık operates a daily regional train from Istanbul to Kapıkule, which stops at Lüleburgaz station.[2]
