The old railway station in the fading light of dusk.

Established on the Japanese colonial era Taitō Line (臺東線) in November 1917 as Suehiro Station (末廣驛), this small stop in Yuli was renamed Dayu in 1946 to commemorate the legendary flood-controller Yu the Great, part of a policy of Sinicization. The station served only a single island platform and a handful of daily trains, and was decommissioned in 1995. The single-storey station building stands empty on the far side of the active tracks, the platform itself having been demolished.

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.
