History
The first EMU service to Dali railway station began on 1 July 2018. Dali–Ruili railway opened on 22 July 2022.
Since the opening of the Guangtong–Dali railway and the Dali–Lincang railway, passenger numbers of the station greatly increased, and the original station facilities became insufficient. Starting from March 2023, the station is being rebuilt on the original site. The new station building has a planned construction area of about 21,000 square meters, being able to accommodate 2,800 passengers. The construction period is expected to be 2 years. During the reconstruction period, a temporary station building located 270 meters east of the original station building is in use. The temporary station building is a steel frame structure of more than 5,200 square meters, including a waiting hall of 3,100 square meters, which can accommodate 1,600 passengers.
