Chengzhui line

The Chengzhui line (Chinese: 成追線; pinyin: Chéngzhuī Xiàn) is a line of the Taiwan Railways Administration connecting the Taichung line at Chenggong station to the West Coast line at Zhuifen station, forming a wye. It is currently a single-track railway. As part of the "Greater Taichung Yamanote Line" plan by the Ministry of Transportation and Communication, the line is currently being upgraded to a double-track to allow for increased traffic between downtown Taichung and its coastal towns. The construction was completed in 2020.[1][2][3]
