Fuzhou (Chinese: 浮洲車站; pinyin: Fúzhōu Chēzhàn) is a railway station on the Taiwan Railways Administration West Coast line located in Banqiao District, New Taipei, Taiwan.[2]
History
The station was first opened in 1932 as a temporary station.[3] It was closed in 1942, reopened in 1953 but ceased to operate soon afterwards. The new station began to operate on 2 September 2011, as a result of TRA's policy of transforming its railroad lines into MRT-type railroad. The only train that stops at this station is the local train. The station is located at the outskirts of Banqiao, and is mostly used by commuters.
