Pinghu railway station
Pinghu railway station, formerly Ping Wu station, serves the town of Pinghu, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. It is a stop on the Guangzhou–Shenzhen railway, and also the termini of Pinghu–Nanshan railway and Pinghu–Yantian railway.
History
The station was opened in 1911 as part of the Kowloon–Canton Railway Chinese Section, with trains running between Kowloon and Canton.
Since the China Railway speed-up campaign, the number of passenger trains stopping at Pinghu was decreasing, and was totally closed to passenger service since 2006 where the last stopping passenger train was cancelled.
It has been reopened to passenger service since 2016 as an intermediate station exclusively for CRH intercity trains on the Guangzhou–Shenzhen railway, while conventional trains do not stop at this station.
