History
Construction was approved by the Ministry of Railways in June 2006, and construction began in November 2008.[1] Train service began on January 11, 2011, with four trains, two towards Jinan and two towards Qingdao.[2]
Service
Before reconstruction, the station offers trains to Qingdao and Jinan, as well as trains to Beijing and Shanghai. Out of the ten trains that enter the station, nine of them are China Railway High-speed trains (designated by "D" and "G"), while the last is a "Common-Fast" train (designated by "K") originating from Dandong.[3]
Currently the station is closed to build lines and platforms for Qingdao-Jinan High-speed railway. It is estimated that reopen will be scheduled in late 2018, along with the launch of the brand new High-speed railway.
