Hangzhou East Railway Station to Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station | Train Ride

Hangzhoudong (Hangzhou East) railway station is a railway station located in Shangcheng District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, People's Republic of China. Originally built as a small station serving the Shanghai-Kunming railway, it has been rebuilt as a high-speed rail hub, which became operational on 1 July 2013.

The old station opened in 1992, located on Tiancheng Road. It was closed on 20 January 2010, and demolished. Its train services were moved to Hangzhou railway station and Hangzhou South railway station.

A new station was built on the site. It officially opened on 1 July 2013, in conjunction with the opening of the Hangzhou–Ningbo High-Speed Railway and Nanjing–Hangzhou Passenger Railway. The station also serves the Shanghai–Hangzhou Passenger Railway. It has 30 railway tracks, and stations for Hangzhou Metro lines 1 and 4. A coach station and bus terminals are also part of the new transit hub.

Shanghai Hongqiao is one of the most prominent of the main railway stations in Shanghai, China - the others being Shanghai railway station, Shanghai South railway station and Shanghai West railway station.

Shanghai Hongqiao railway station, located in Minhang District of Shanghai, is a major part of the Hongqiao Comprehensive Transportation Hub (“the Hongqiao hub”). The station is next to Terminal 2 of Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport and lines 2, 10, and 17 of Shanghai Metro.

The construction of the railway station began on 20 July 2008 with a total investment of more than CNY 15 billion ($2.3 billion). It was opened on 1 July 2010, simultaneously with the opening of the Shanghai–Nanjing intercity railway line. The railway station takes a total area of about 1,300,000 square meters (13,993,084 sq ft) and has 16 platforms, most of which are high-speed-rail configuration. The main building of the train station measures 420 metres (1,377 ft 11 in) in length, 200 metres (656 ft 2 in) in width, and 70 metres (229 ft 8 in) high (counting both underground and overground floors). 80,000 tons of steel was used to construct the train station, twice the amount of steel used to build the Beijing National Stadium (Bird nest). The train station waiting hall area is more than 10,000 square meters (107,639 sq ft), and is capable of handling 10,000 passengers at the same time. The station serves 210,000 rail passengers per day.

The station primarily serves as the Shanghai terminus of several high-speed rail lines, including the Shanghai–Nanjing intercity railway, the Shanghai–Hangzhou high-speed railway (the first section of the Shanghai–Kunming high-speed railway), and the Beijing–Shanghai high-speed railway. As of 2015, all trains departing from Shanghai Hongqiao belong to the G and D classes (interprovincial high-speed services).

Non-high-speed trains from Shanghai to the North and South of China depart from either the main Shanghai railway station or the Shanghai South railway station, respectively.
