Qingdao railway station

Qingdao railway station (simplified Chinese: 青岛站; traditional Chinese: 青島站; pinyin: Qīngdǎo zhàn) is a railway station in Qingdao, Shandong, in the People's Republic of China. In the years leading up to the 2008 Summer Olympics, the station underwent a significant renovation in order to accommodate increased passenger traffic for the Olympic period and afterwards. The new station is an example of German architectural traits incorporated into a Chinese-designed building, which is consistent with many structures in Qingdao.

As a time-honoured station of Qingdao, it receives and departs more than 100 common passenger trains (denoted with letter Z/T/K, or no letter denoted), initially scheduled CRH trains (denoted with letter G/D) and some intercity CRH trains (denoted with letter C) in one day. Limited by a relatively small number of platforms, most newly scheduled trains eventually will not stop here, Instead, terminating at the larger Qingdao North railway station. There are also trains that stop at both Qingdao North and Qingdao stations.

gollark: And perhaps try specifying mono output.
gollark: But I would advise at least trying to convert it to WAV separately to see if it does something. Maybe a weird format issue.
