History
Guangzhou Baiyun railway station is located partially on the site of the defunct Tangxi railway station, which was originally constructed in 1916. Tangxi station's northern concourse was torn down to make way for Guangzhou Baiyun station's construction.[2]
In July 2019, it was announced that the station would start construction in September. At the time, it was expected to be complete by 2022.[1]
On 2 October 2020, China Railway Construction Corporation won the bid to construct the station.[3]
Guangzhou Metro
The station will be served by Guangzhou Metro lines 8 (via Shitan station), 12, 22 and 24.
