Starting from 1PM this afternoon, the Nangang-Banqiao line of
MRT is extended to Tucheng by the opening of six new stations:
MRT Banqiao Station, located beside HSR and TRA Banqiao Station;
Fuzhong Station, located beside the old TRA Banqiao Station, the downtown area of Banqiao City;
Far Eastern Hospital Station, the third station named after a nearby hospital, following
Wanfang Hospital Station and
NTU Hospital Station;
Haishan Station and
Tucheng Station, which I passed by tonight; and finally the new terminal station,
Yongning Station, which I stopped by to take a photo with my cell phone.
It's a
great day for inaugurating the six new stations, because it's
Dragon Boat Festival, a national holiday, which also helped to extend the last day for filing and paying income tax to June 1st.
Great day indeed! Means differently for different people. Happy belated birthday, my friend.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind wish, Linda. I feel the happiness of my birthday extended beyond. I am still in the process of understanding the differences between being twenty-nine and thirty years old. Advancing the digit took me ten years, so I think I should find out if it was worthwhile.
