Taoyuan (Chinese: 桃園; pinyin: Táoyuán) is a railway station in Taoyuan, Taiwan served by Taiwan Railway. The station was
the second busiest station in 2020 in terms of passenger volume, behind Taipei. The Taoyuan MRT is planned to be extended to Taoyuan.
Structure
There is one island platform and two side platforms. The side platform of Linkou line is outside the station owing to free service. The station is undergoing massive construction as of 2023. Two underground island platforms will be built to replace the existing platforms. The tracks for two Taoyuan MRT underground lines are also being built. Because of the construction, the station is temporarily relocated until 2020, when the new platforms and tracks are expected to be completed.
Service
All classes of trains stop at the station with the exception of one daily Puyuma service. EasyCard usage for trains along West Coast line, Yilan line, and Pingtung line are also available at this station.
History
The station began to operate in 1893 during the late Qing rule. In 1905, during Japanese rule, a new wooden terminal was built to replace the existing terminal. It was the terminal station of the Linkou line. Post World War II, the terminal went through another major renovation in 1962, and was used until 2015, when the construction of new platforms began. Also, construction of new underground station platforms in the area began in September 2020 as a part of Taoyuan Metropolitan Area Underground Project which will be completed in September 2030.
