In November 2014, work began to reroute the railway to pass through Sanming North and avoid the centre of Shaxian. This was completed in December 2017. ^[2] The Nanping–Longyan railway was opened on 29 December 2018 and passes through this station. It also introduced a second railway station in Sanming, Sanming railway station in Sanyuan District. ^[3]
