Lushun is the most historically significant municipal district in Dalian, and all kinds of facilities in the territory are full of profound history of blood and tears, and it is worth visiting as a patriotic education base. Lushun Railway Station is a terminal station of the Dashun branch line of the Middle Eastern Railway, which is located in Lushunkou District, Dalian City, Liaoning Province, which was built in the 26th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, that is, in 1903 AD, and was put into use in 1903 AD. Lushun Station of the Middle East Railway is a century-old station with historical significance, although it has a disgraceful history during the Tsarist period, and its motives are not simple enough, but the station plays an important role in facilitating the travel of local people and promoting local economic development. As a result, it has also become the most controversial railway station in Liaoning Province, and today the passenger function of Lushun Station has been completely abandoned, and the station building is listed as an important heritage of Chinese railway architecture.
According to relevant historical records, as early as the 24th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, that is, in 1898 AD, Tsarist Russia invaded and occupied Lushun, an important port city in the northeast of China, due to various management needs and port material transportation, Lushun Station was built near Lushun Military Port and laid tracks to the wharf, becoming the terminus of the southern line of the Middle East Railway. Today's Lushun station has stopped passenger transportation, and only the station building remains.
Shan Yejun saw Lushun, a place full of history and stories, on the Internet, so he took a train from Dalian to Lushun Railway Station, but he didn't expect that all the stations were suspended, and only the old station building was still there. It's also great to take photos at the entrance of the station, right?
In the 26th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, the Lushun Station of the Middle Eastern Railway was fully started, and in the 29th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, it was officially put into use. In the same year, Russian engineers designed the construction drawings of the new station yard of Lushun Station and started construction. In the 31st year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, that is, in 1905 AD, Japan continued to build a new station yard of Lushun Station that had been suspended, replacing the operation of the old Lushun Railway Station, and the existing Lushun Station was continued after Japan.
The existing Lushun Railway Station has become a key protected building in Dalian, although the motivation for the construction of the station is not pure, but it is also a witness to the bitter history, and it is more reasonable to become a protection unit as an old building.
It is not difficult to see that the passenger function of this station should be out of service for a short time, and it should not be more than 10 years since the suspension of the Russian style buildings and modern supporting facilities. If you can continue to resume passenger transportation, it is still very good to experience this old station, and it is estimated that the passenger flow should be good, after all, many people in modern times are more nostalgic.
In the station introduction letter, it was learned that Lushun Railway Station is located at No. 8, Jinggang District Street, Desheng Street, Lushunkou District, Dalian City, and is now under the jurisdiction of Dalian Railway Depot of Shenyang Bureau Group Company. It was built in 1898, with a construction area of 306 square meters, and was officially opened to traffic in 1903.
The straw hat-shaped oval spire, the feather-like tiles, and the exotic details of the carvings give people a heavy sense of history. There is a relatively intact European-style platform in the station, backed by Baiyu Mountain and facing the Lushun Military Port, stopping in the meantime to enjoy the beautiful scenery of mountains and seas. In 1898, Tsarist Russia forcibly leased the city and began to expand the military port and lay the railway.
When surveying the location of the railway station, it was originally planned to be in the Sun Valley, but later it was selected at the present site for the needs of military transportation. Lushun Railway Station is the terminus of the South Manchurian Railway branch line built during the occupation of Lushun by Tsar**, which was put into operation on July 14, 1903, and the railway transportation was interrupted during the Russo-Japanese War in 1904, and was reopened to traffic in 1905. In 1907, the Lushun line was changed from narrow gauge to standard gauge. After the surrender of Japan, Soviet troops took over the station, implementing the Central Soviet battalion, and it was not until December 1952 that our country officially took over the station.
Due to the great value of Lushun Railway Station in the study of architectural history, it was listed as a municipal cultural relics protection unit in 1985. In 2002, it was included in the first batch of key protected buildings in Dalian. In March 2013, it was announced as a national key cultural relics protection unit. On December 2, 2017, it was selected into the second batch of China's 20th century architectural heritage list.
