Established in 1908, this station provided both passenger and freight service but was mainly used for transporting finished goods from the nearby Tangrong Brick Factory (中都唐榮磚窯廠). A wooden station house was completed in 1923; this is the building that has since been restored. Passenger service was discontinued in 1962, and eventually all operations ceased in 1986.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
