Services

Presently (2010) this is the main railway station of Nanjing, with the great majority of all trains serving Nanjing using this station. Only a comparatively small number of trains, going to the destinations to the southwest of Nanjing, pass through the (old) Nanjing South Railway Station, which is located south of Nanjing's walled city; very few trains go to Nanjing West Railway Station. However, the new Nanjing South Railway Station is under construction in the southern part of greater Nanjing; when completed, Nanjing South will be used by most of the high-speed trains presently using Nanjing Railway Station.

Nanjing Railway Station station is served by a station of the same name on Line 1 of Nanjing Metro. It is also the terminal for many of the city bus lines.

History

The station opened in 1968[2].
