Nanjing North railway station (opened 1914)
Nanjing North railway station () is a railway station in Nanjing's Pukou District which was built in 1914. Located near the northern shore of the Yangtze River, it was a busy station because people had to get off the train and cross Yangtze River by ferry, and to resume their journey from the Nanjing West railway station on the southern bank of the river. History
The station opened in 1914 and was called Pukou railway station. It was a terminus, from which a ferry took passengers to Nanjing. After the completion of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge in October 1968, the ferry service was discontinued and the station closed. Passenger services resumed in May 1985, but were discontinued again in October 2004. At some point the station was also renamed Nanjing North. The adjacent freight yard and docks remain in operation.
