Klaten Station has six train lines. At first, line 1 was a straight line. After the SrowotKetandan double-track section was put into operation in 2001 and the BrambananDelanggu section on 15 December 2003, line 1 is a straight line towards Yogyakarta and line 2 is a straight line towards Solo.[4][5] However, there is a rail track that bends from the direction of Yogyakarta when approaching line 2 because there are remnants of the station platform from the NIS era which is quite wide. Tracks 5 and 6 leading to the warehouse have now been repaired and repurposed to accommodate parked trains.

To support double-track operation, the mechanical signaling system at this station was replaced with an electrical signaling system made by Len Industri which had been installed since 2013 and had only been operational since 12 February 2019.[6]
