Beyond Template:BJS stations, the terminus that is accessible to the public, there are three other stations on Line 1, Beijing Subway.

Gaojing and Heishitou are located in the Beijing Military Region (which is part of the Central Theater Command), therefore rendering them inaccessible to the public.

Template:BJS stations station is under renovation.[1][2] The station will also serve the nearby Beijing Banking & Insurance Business Park (北京银行保险产业园).[3]

Fu Shou Ling station (52#/No. 102)

Entrance of the station.

Template:BJS stations station (simplified Chinese: 福寿岭站; traditional Chinese: 福壽嶺站; pinyin: Fúshòulǐng Zhàn) is under renovation.[1][2] It is actually the third last station of Line 1, Beijing Subway.

Before May 28, 2007, two Line 1 trains stopped by this station each day to allow students of the vocational school and workers to alight; one stopped in the morning and one stopped in the evening.[4] The station is served by several public bus routes, some of which bypass Pingguoyuan station. Of the four entrances/exits, only one was readily accessible until the station's full closure; the other three entrances/exits were sealed with cement long ago, and the remaining entrance is locked behind a metal gate. Since the station's full closure, trains no longer stop at the station; however, some trains pass by the station to reverse by traveling through a balloon loop west of the station.

In 2020, the station is under renovation. The total station size is about 10000 m2, of which the existing underground area is 4271 m2, the newly-build underground area is 1962 m2, and the newly-build ground-level area is 4257 m2.[1][2] The station is located near the Metro Drivers' Vocational School. The station will also serve the nearby Beijing Banking & Insurance Business Park (北京银行保险产业园).[3]

Gaojing station (53#/No. 101)

Entrance to Station No. 53 at Gaojing.

Gaojing station (高井站; Gāojǐng Zhàn), the "second-to-last" station, is located in the Beijing Military Region. There are two side platforms with space for two tracks, one of which (facing Sihui East) has been left unbuilt.

Heishitou station (54#)

Although officially a defunct railway station (thus having no subway code number), Heishitou station (黑石头站; 黑石頭站; Hēishítou Zhàn) is often considered a disused station on Line 1 by the general public, probably due to its location on a disused China Railway military-only branch line which happens to link to line 1. There are two side platforms with space for two tracks. The (unofficial) name of the Heishitou station is derived from its proximity to the nearby Heishitou Village located in Shijingshan District, Beijing, in the Western Hills. There is a secret bunker-like facility used as an underground command centre by the Chinese military dating back to the 1950s (similar to the Pentagon), thus rendering this part of the Western Hills inaccessible to the public.

Beyond Heishitou station

After Heishitou station, there is a connection to the Sanjiadian railway station, also located in Beijing's Western Hills.
