The rail line, which was completed in 1920, drew attention both domestically and internationally for being the first Chinese-funded and Chinese-constructed railroad in the world.

In 1938, the railway was ordered by the Nationalist Government to be destroyed to prevent the advance of invading Japanese troops. The station would subsequently serve as a bus station.
