Founded in 1895, Fengtai Station is the first railway station in Beijing and has successively become an important hub on the Beijing-Hankou, Beijing-Fengtian, Beijing-Zhangjiakou railway lines.

Beijing's railway has expanded since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. The Beijing West Railway station has stolen some of Fengtai's thunder in the past 20 years. Fengtai's role was declining until 2010 when the station finally stopped catering to passenger traffic. In the same year, the reconstruction and expansion of Fengtai was put on the agenda. In 2018, the government officially launched the Fengtai Station reconstruction project and the new Fengtai Station construction project.
