Anqing railway station is a railway station in Yixiu District, Anqing, Anhui, China.
The station is the eastern terminus of the Anqing railway, a branch line from the Hefei–Jiujiang railway. It is the western terminus of the Nanjing–Anqing intercity railway. It is also the eastern terminus of a branch from the Hefei–Jiujiang high-speed railway.
History[edit]
The station opened in 1995.[1] In 2004, a line heading east from this station to a nearby power plant was opened.[2] This line is no longer in use, but the route east was reused by the Nanjing–Anqing intercity.
A project to upgrade the station in preparation for the opening of the Nanjing–Anqing intercity railway began in May 2014.[1] The refurbished station opened on 3 December 2015.[3]
