Beijing North Railway Station (Chinese: 北京北站; pinyin: Běijīng Běi Zhàn), formerly known as Xizhimen Railway Station (simplified Chinese: 西直门站; traditional Chinese: 西直門站; pinyin: Xīzhímén Zhàn), is a railway station in Beijing, China. It was built in 1905 as one of the original stations on the Jingzhang Railway, now part of the old Beijing-Baotou Line.
Beijing North is now a small (Tier-III) station managed by the Beijing Railway Bureau, providing regular intercity train services to the north and northwest, including the Hailar-Baotou Grasslands Express. It is also the southern terminus for the S2 Line of the Beijing Suburban Railway.
[edit] Public Transportation
The station is located just outside of Xizhimen and accessible by Lines 2 and Line 13 of the Beijing Subway as well as numerous city bus lines.
