Laixi railway station (Chinese: 莱西站; pinyin: Láixī zhàn) is a railway station in Laixi, Qingdao, Shandong, China. It is situated about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) south of the centre of Laixi.[1]
History
The station was opened on 28 December 2014 along with the Qingdao–Rongcheng intercity railway.[2] The station was closed from 10 July 2019 for reconstruction as part of the Weifang–Laixi high-speed railway.[3] The station is the start of the Laixi–Rongcheng high-speed railway, which provides a faster journey to Rongcheng.[4][5]
Name
The station opened as Laixi North, despite being situated to the south of Laixi. However, it is about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) north of Laixi railway station on the Lancun–Yantai railway, which opened in 1955.[6] In 2020, in preparation for reopening, the name was changed to Laixi railway station. The original Laixi railway station was renamed Laixi South.[1]
