Xinguang Railway Station (新光車站) - Spectral Codex

A short-lived stop on the Kaohsiung Harbor Line (高雄臨港線) next to Xinguang Wharf (新光碼頭) in Lingya, Kaohsiung. It opened in 2003 to serve the Dudu Train (嘟嘟火車), a sightseeing service, which ceased operation in 2006. The station was formally abolished in 2008. Both platforms survive in the waterfront park along the harbor, the rails between them replaced by a boardwalk forming part of the municipal cycle route.
