[edit] History

The line was originally built by Taipower to facilitate the construction of power plants in Sun Moon Lake. Afterwards, the colony government purchased the route in 1927.

The line was severely damaged in the Chi-Chi earthquake on 21 September 1999, but was reconstructed in Feb. 2002.

[edit] Operation

In Jiji line, there are twelve runs everyday, however, only one runs between Ershuei station and Checheng station, and the others travel between Taichung station and Checheng station. The headway between each number of runs is about two hours. Because it's a single line, only one way can run all the time.
