Changsha South Railway Station handled over 100 million passenger departures and arrivals in 2024, hitting a new record high, according to the station on January 1, 2025.

Over the past year, Changsha South Railway Station has continuously promoted route expansion. On June 15, 2024, the Wuhan-Guangzhou High-Speed Railway started to operate at a standard speed of 350 km/h along its entire length, with 47 pairs of such high-speed trains departing from Changsha South Railway Station to Guangzhou. This further unleashed the line's transport capacity. Meanwhile, extra trains were added to busy sections of the railway including Miluo to Changsha and Changsha to Hengyang, which greatly facilitated the travel of passengers in the province. In 2024, Changsha South Railway Station handled 532 trains per day, an increase of 8% over 2023. At present, Changsha South Railway Station offers direct connections to 12 provincial capitals and one municipality directly under the central government within a travel time of 5 hours, linking it to nearly 300 cities. This has created more convenient conditions for business trips and tourism exchanges.

To cope with the upcoming Spring Festival travel rush, Changsha South Railway Station has continuously paid attention to changes in passenger demand. Beginning January 5, 2025, 16 pairs of high-speed trains will be added and 343 pairs of high-speed trains will be launched, leading to a 4.9% increase in capacity. In addition, trains starting off from the Changsha South Railway Station and arriving at Jieyang and Meizhou in Guangdong Province will be launched for the first time to enhance transport capacity.
