History of Tianjin West Railway Station

1. Who can tell me the historical background of the main building of Tianjin West Railway Station? It is urgent. Thank you. 1898 In September, Yingde Capital Group held a meeting in London and decided to undertake the Tianjin-Zhenjiang railway without authorization. Qing * * * succumbed to pressure and signed a loan agreement on May 1899 and a loan contract on May 1908, and renamed Jinzhen Railway as Jinpu Railway.

The Jin-Pu Railway and Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, with a total length of 1009 km, have become the traffic arteries connecting the north and the south. Its northern section is 626 kilometers from the intersection of two roads south of Tianjin main station (now North Station) of Jingfeng Railway (Beijing to Shenyang) to Han Zhuang, Shandong. The southern section runs from Han Zhuang to Pukou, with a total length of 383 kilometers. The two paragraphs started in July 1908, June 1909 and September191. 19 13 opened to traffic.

At that time, the construction of the northern section of Jinpu Railway started from the middle of the design line, that is, from Jinghai Liangwangzhuang to Tianjin. The reason for this is that the specific address of Tianjin, the starting point of this railway, has not been determined. As a result, a railway line without knowing the specific starting point was built in a hurry.

Later, Lu Haihuan, the minister in charge of railway supervision, sent an investigator. After on-the-spot investigation, he submitted a valuable document, saying: "(Tianjin) There are more than two hectares of vacant land behind Zhaojiachang in Hebei Province, with flat terrain, neither houses nor graves, which can be used to build the main station." Therefore, Lu Haihuan made a decision: the starting point station of Jinpu Railway was determined to be built in Zhaojiachang, Hebei.

The so-called "Zhaojiachang, Hebei" actually refers to the area from Beiyingmen to South Canal in Hongqiao District. At that time, the South Canal was not straight. Zhaojiachang was located on the north bank of the South Canal, formerly known as "Zhaojiachang in Hebei", about 500 meters away from Tianjin West Railway Station. Therefore, the track laying construction direction of the northern section of Jin-Pu Railway is inclined to Zhaojiachang direction. Later, the symbol of Zhao's station-an elegant and tall German-style small foreign building stood tall in the surrounding grass trees and ordinary alleys, just like standing out from the crowd and becoming a beautiful landscape. Today, nearly a hundred years later, it is still shining and elegant.

19101214. Tianjin West Railway Station was completed and opened to traffic. Form a pattern of Tianjin's east, north and west stations. Tianjin East Railway Station (completed in 1892) is located in the Russian Concession, adjacent to the Italian Concession and across the Haihe River from the French Concession. Tianjin North Railway Station (1904 completed) is located in the "Beiyang New District" carefully built by Yuan Shikai, which shows the prosperity of the Westernization Movement. Around the West Railway Station, there is an original ecological living atmosphere at the grassroots level.

After the Tianjin Tram 1906 invested and built by the Belgian consortium, it will go directly from Peking University to the East Railway Station via Dongfuqiao (now Jintang Bridge) and Wanguo Bridge (now jiefang bridge). After that, the added purple tram leads from Jingang Bridge to North Station. Only the west station is closed to trams. Passengers catching the train get off at the northwest corner station by tram, and then go by tricycle or on foot.

There are many factories and workshops in Santiaoshi area of Hebei Street east of West Railway Station, which is the birthplace of Tianjin industry. The dry bridge and Dahongqiao area to the north of West Railway Station are inland river terminals leading from Tianjin to Jizhong. Dahuoxiang area in the southwest and northwest corner of the West Railway Station is the core settlement of the lower class citizens living in the north of the old city of Tianjin. This ecological situation around the West Railway Station has remained unchanged for almost a hundred years and continues to this day.

Hebei Street, Appraisal Street and Shenzhen Street near the West Railway Station were the commercial centers of Tianjin a hundred years ago. /kloc-After the Boxer Rebellion (the Boxer Rebellion and Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion) in 0/900, Tianjin Commercial Center gradually moved southward to Xu Jie in the Japanese Concession (the department store near the intersection of Heping Road and Duolun Road today) and Pear Stack in the French Concession (the persuasion field near the intersection of Heping Road and binjiang road today).

After the Gengzi Rebellion, it was located in the original bustling commercial downtown areas such as Hebei Street, Yuyi Street and Shenjie in Hongqiao District, and it was like a stagnant water. This decline not only made the governor of Zhili in Tianjin scratch his head, but even the local old residents had no hope of restoring their former prosperity. However, the construction of Jinpu Road objectively brings ZTE a glimmer of hope in this hot land: if the open space behind Zhaojiachang is developed to build a new large railway station, the former prosperity will be expected to gradually recover. Facts have proved that after the completion of the West Railway Station, the gradually quiet surrounding areas have indeed recovered their vitality. As one of the foreign strong cultures, the railway not only prospered the traffic, but also promoted the modernization of people's social relations and concepts, and objectively promoted the prosperity of the regional economy.

The transformation of the West Railway Station, a new "underground diameter line", connects the West Railway Station and tianjin railway station, and essentially forms a powerful giant station. The original ecology of different temperament in different urban areas of Tianjin will be changed. At the same time, this connection will upgrade the surrounding areas of West Railway Station in terms of economy, culture and urban features, and it will surely glow with new youth.

On February 4th, Tianjin West Railway Station of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway officially started construction. After a hundred years of vicissitudes, the West Railway Station has ushered in brand-new changes. Four high-speed trains, namely, Beijing-Tianjin Intercity, Beijing-Shanghai, Jinbao and Tianjin-Qinhuangdao, will meet at the New West Station, and "zero transfer" will be realized for railways, buses, subways, taxis and long-distance passenger transport. The underground diameter line will closely connect Tianjin West Railway Station and tianjin railway station, forming a modern large-scale comprehensive transportation hub including passenger dedicated line, express railway, urban rail and road traffic.

The newly-built Tianjin West Railway Station is an important node project of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and will become the largest comprehensive transportation hub in Tianjin. According to the construction plan, the new West Station covers an area of about 680,000 square meters. The main structure of the station building has two floors above ground and three floors underground, with a total construction area of 1.8 million square meters and a total parking lot of 24 vehicles and 24 lines.

2. What is the history of Tianjin Railway Station? 1877 In order to supply the coal needed by Beiyang Navy, China Merchants and Tianjin Machinery Bureau (Arsenal), Li Hongzhang ordered the establishment of Kaiping Coal Mine Company, and the first shaft was dug by machinery for the first time in Tangshan.

In order to transport coal to the nearest Haikou, the company requested to build a railway from Tangshan to Beitang, but it was opposed by the Qing Dynasty. Kaiping Coal Mine Company had to apply for shortening the railway line and only repairing the section from Tangshan to Xugezhuang (now Fengnan).

From Xugezhuang to Zhuang Yan (now near Ninghe River), a canal was dug to connect the existing thistle canal with Beitangkou. This ridiculous and helpless request was finally reluctantly passed.

1880 10 officially started construction, with a total length of 9.67km.188118 was completed and opened to traffic, and it was named "Tang Xu Railway". Tang-Xu Railway 1887 extends to Lutai, and 1888 is repaired to Tianjin, with a total length of 130 km. It is named as "Jintang Railway".

According to historical records, the main line of Jin-Tang Railway is single-track, and the rails are light rail (the station line is18kg) with the gauge of the world's "standard gauge", that is, the distance between the two rails is1.435m. When Tianjin Railway Station was first built, there were two lines (later expanded into nine lines, commonly known as "the next nine lines") and two lines.

Four years later, in May, 1892, the station moved "half a mile" to the west (about 500 meters) and built a certain scale station near Jijialou and Huoshenmiao Village (i.e. 1987 Tianjin Railway Station reconstruction site). The relocated station is located in the "Laolongtou" area on the east bank of Haihe River (that is, Majiakou to Laolongtou Ferry to the lower reaches of jiefang bridge), which is commonly known as "Laolongtou" Railway Station. At the beginning of last century, due to the destruction of the "Gengzi mutiny" station, the following year (1902), a more perfect station was rebuilt on the original site, named "Tianjin Purple Station", and a monument of "Old Dragon Head" was built in the center of the station square (later demolished).

19 1 1 year, "Tianjin Purple Station" was renamed as "Tianjin East Station". In order to organize international intermodal transport, uplink and downlink signals and inbound and outbound signals were installed at the first platform, and the first international train was successfully launched at the first platform (international platform) on June1930+1October 10.

In 1930s and 1940s, the station did not develop greatly due to "war" and other factors. In the second year after the founding of New China, the waiting room of 1 1,000 square meters was expanded. Until the reconstruction of Tianjin Railway Station in 1988, the passenger traffic increased sharply in 39 years, with an average daily handling of 65,000 passengers, five times that of the early days of the founding of New China.

1987, the reconstruction project of Tianjin Railway Hub was decided by the municipal government and the Ministry of Railways as a key project in the Seventh Five-Year Plan and approved by the State Council. Construction started on April 1987, and was officially completed on April 1 988+1October1. Comrade * * * personally wrote the name of the station, Tianjin Railway Station. Since then, Tianjin East Railway Station has been renamed as tianjin railway station.

As the transformation hub, there are two points (tianjin railway station and Nancang) and two lines (Cao Nan Ring Road and North Ring Road). ) "One of the Tianjin Railway Stations was opened at the same time.

3. Historical background of the main building of Tianjin West Railway Station Tianjin West Railway Station was built in August, 19 10, 12, 14. Its Gothic landmark building has become a key protected cultural relic in Tianjin, and it has maintained its unique charm after wind and rain changes, becoming a major landscape in Hongqiao District.

In order to promote the construction of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and speed up the reconstruction and expansion of Tianjin West Railway Station, Hongqiao District will start the demolition work of Yikangli area recently, and has completed the calculation of housing area and required funds, and is stepping up the formulation of reasonable and feasible demolition and resettlement plans. At this point, the reconstruction and expansion project of the West Railway Station has begun.

The main line of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway is about 13 18 km, and the total length in Tianjin is 128 km. As the only station of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway in Tianjin, the reconstruction covers a large area. According to preliminary investigation and statistics, the total amount of demolition in the West Railway Station area is 230,000 square meters, involving 4 100 households and population 1 1300 people. Among them, the land requisition and demolition of the newly-built West Railway Station and the railway line need to occupy 592.7 mu of land in Hongqiao District, and the demolition house area is 155907.76 square meters. In order to do a good job in demolition and resettlement and speed up the reconstruction and expansion of the West Railway Station, Hongqiao District set up a demolition headquarters to communicate with the Municipal Communications Commission, the Municipal Railway Company and the West Railway Station Construction Headquarters of the Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway Project, and strive to implement the demolition and reconstruction project as soon as possible.

4. Introduction of Tianjin West Railway Station Tianjin West Railway Station, which was built in August 1909, is located in Hongqiao District, Tianjin, between Ziya River and South Canal. It is under the jurisdiction of Beijing Railway Bureau and is now a first-class station. Tianjin West Railway Station is one of the five starting stations on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, connecting Beijing-Shanghai line, Nancang connecting line, Tianjin west line, Tianjin-Pakistan passenger dedicated line, Beijing-Tianjin connecting line and Tianjin-Qinhuangdao high-speed railway. Tianjin West Railway Station19101214 opened. The station building, designed by German architects, is a brick-red German neoclassical building. At present, the old station building of Tianjin West Railway Station is a historical building of Tianjin cultural relics protection unit and special protection level, and it is also a landmark building in this area. Since 2009, Tianjin West Railway Station has been expanded, and modern new station buildings, front and rear squares and other supporting projects have been built. On June 30th, 20 1 1, the new Tianjin West Railway Station and the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway were put into operation simultaneously. From September 1, 2005, Tianjin West Railway Station implemented a brand-new passenger train operation map, and Tianjin West Railway Station will operate 107 train, which is 4 more trains than the original map. With the opening of Jinbao high-speed railway at the end of February 2065438+2005, Tianjin West Railway Station will add more than 20 pairs of trains, which will fully relieve the passenger pressure in tianjin railway station and become the starting point of Tianjin's high-speed railway to East China, Central China and South China.

5. The tianjin railway station of Tianjin Railway Station was built in 1886 and opened to traffic in 1888+00.

1892 another passenger station was set up about 500 meters west of the station, which was then called laolongtou station. 1900, the station was destroyed by Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China.

This station was rebuilt after the war. 1949 for tianjin railway station.

In order to transport coal to the nearest Haikou, the coal mining company asked to build a railway from Tangshan to Beitang, but it was opposed by the Qing Dynasty. Kaiping Coal Mine Company had to apply for shortening the railway line and only repairing the section from Tangshan to Xugezhuang (now Fengnan).

From Xugezhuang to Zhuang Yan (now near Ninghe River), a canal was dug to connect the existing thistle canal with Beitangkou. This ridiculous and helpless request was finally reluctantly passed.

1880 10 China's first railway, the Tangshan-Xugezhuang railway, was officially started, with a total length of 9.67 kilometers. It was opened to traffic on 188 1 18 and was named "Tang Xu Railway". 1887 (13th year of Guangxu reign), Tangxu Railway extended to Lutai, 1888 extended to Tianjin via Hangu and Tanggu, with a total length of130km, and was named as "Jintang Railway".

According to historical records, the main line of Jin-Tang Railway is single-track, and the rails are light rail (the station line is18kg) with the gauge of the world's "standard gauge", that is, the distance between the two rails is1.435m. When Tianjin Railway Station was first built, there were two lines (later expanded into nine lines, commonly known as "the next nine lines") and two lines.

1892 (18th year of Guangxu), a new passenger station was built in the west of Wangdaozhuang (about 500m west of the station) and near Jijialou and Huoshenmiao Village (i.e. 1987), including floats, locomotives, waiting rooms, official residences, platforms and other buildings. This is commonly known as the "old leading station".

The relocated station is located in the "Laolongtou" area on the east bank of Haihe River (that is, Majiakou to Laolongtou Ferry to the lower reaches of jiefang bridge), which is commonly known as "Laolongtou" Railway Station. It established Tianjin as an important railway hub. Later, it became the intersection of Jingshan and Jinpu railway trunk lines.

1900, the station of "Gengzi mutiny" (the 26th year of Guangxu) was destroyed. 1902, a more perfect station was rebuilt and named "Tianjin Purple Station", and a monument of "Old Dragon Head" was built in the center of the station square (later demolished). 19 1 1 year, "Tianjin Purple Station" was renamed as "Tianjin East Station".
