105-year-old railway station in Hebei closes

A train station in China reached the end of the line on Monday night after 105 years of service.

Zhangjiakou Station, the terminal station of Jingzhang Rail that links Zhangjiakou, Hebei province, with Beijing, will no longer be used for passenger trains, according to the Jingzhang Rail administration.

Jingzhang Rail was the first railway wholly financed by domestic money, and took Chinese workers four years to build. Two trains a day used to stop at the station.
