Station Information

Changzhou North railway station has 2 platforms and a total of 6 tracks. The station building features an oval cylindrical design.

The fish-like shape of the station building symbolizes the connotations of Changzhou, known as the "Land of Fish and Rice". The main building of the station covers an area of nearly 13,000 square meters.[1]

Expansion Plan

In 2024, an expansion of the station is being planned. In the southern square of the station, a newly constructed 6,600 square meter covered walkway and a north-south transfer corridor allow passengers to enter and exit the station without exposure to wind and rain. The covered walkway will also connect to the underground parking garage, enabling passengers to reach the garage directly via escalators.[2]
