Location

Changsha railway station (simplified Chinese: 长沙站; traditional Chinese: 長沙站; pinyin: Chángshā zhàn) is a railway station and a metro station on the Beijing–Guangzhou railway and the Changsha–Zhuzhou–Xiangtan intercity railway. The station is located in Furong District, Changsha, Hunan, China. The station is served by Changsha Metro Line 2 and Line 3.

History

The station opened in 1911. By 1947, the station had been refurbished twice due to the Chinese Civil War.[1]

In 1967, a new passenger rail station, Changshaxin station, was constructed along the Beijing–Guangzhou line in order to relieve congestion at Changsha station. However, the traffic capacity of the station is still insufficient to meet the demand at the original Changsha station. As a result, the Ministry of Railways and Guangzhou Railway Administration decided that a new station building is to be built west of Changshaxin station. Construction for the new station began in 1975 and it opened on 30 June 1977, with the former station being demolished.[1]
