Built in 1971, it is currently the site of the Fuzhou Depot of Nanchang Railway Bureau. It holds the largest classification yard on the Wenzhou-Fuzhou Railway,[1] having undergone a major station upgrade with the construction of the line. This was marked by the first freight train departure on the new line from this station on the 30th June 2009.[2] It is the largest freight station in Fujian, and handles no passenger services.[1]
A project to reduce congestion and to prevent freight services from entering the urban area of Fuzhou has been planned with Zhanglin station as a major hub.[3][4]
