Over the years, this railway station has brought with it many tourists to come and wander around the town’s streets, and has grown side by side with the town and its people, witnessing all of the ups and downs. An intimate relationship between the station and the people has slowly grown, memories of which have been etched with each and every local resident. Zhuifun is an old railway station with a history stretching back to 1922 and the Japanese occupation of Taiwan. It is situated in the Dadu District of Taichung City and is on the eve of its ninetieth anniversary.
In the Japanese language ‘Zhui fen’ means ‘difference’, indicating that once trains have arrived at the station on the coastal line they must choose from two possible routes, one going to Chang Hua in the west and the other going to Taichung. This time-honored station has witnessed the people’s vicissitudes, and the blossoming of relationships of coutless young lovers, who often visit the station on the eve of their wedding to pay homage through their wedding photos. Many of the workers at the station say they never want to leave this magnificent timber build Japanese station, a place that has seen the past and will no doubt see far into the future.
