Details

Changhua Station
It is located at the south meeting point of the mountain and coastal railway lines. Changhua City used to be the location of the political and economic center for the whole central Taiwan area in the early period of the Republic of China. It can be regarded as the hub for both mountain and coastal lines in terms of railway traffic. It has railways to Dajia and Shalu on the coastal line and Taichung on the mountain line. It is why the geographical location of Changhua City is so unique and significant

Changhua Sector Garage
The Sector Garage is the only surviving railway roundhouse in the country. After steam engine locomotive completes the nostalgic tour, it will be stationed at Changhua Railway Roundhouse. It creates more value of historical and cultural preservation for the railway roundhouse. The garage was constructed in 1922. The tracks extend outwards from the center of the garage like a fan, and it is called roundhouse. Locomotive goes into the garage for rest and maintenance after the long-distance journey; therefore, it is also called “the hotel for locomotives”.
