Beijing South seeks answer to taxi woes

Passengers complain of difficulties leaving train station late at night

In the face of harsh accusations of poor taxi service, Beijing South Railway Station has upgraded its facilities to provide passengers a better experience when they wait for cabs at night, the station's spokesman said on Monday.

Beijing South, one of Beijing's three major railway hubs and one of Asia's largest train stations, has faced questions in the media recently over poor passenger experiences, including long waiting lines for taxis, "black cabs" outside of the station that overcharge and difficulties entering and leaving the station.
