Chenggong station platform

Chenggong (Chinese: 成功車站; pinyin: Chénggōng Chēzhàn) is a railway station on the Taiwan Railways Administration Taichung line located in Wuri District, Taichung, Taiwan. The name is derived from the nearby Chenggongling military base.

Train tickets from Zhuifen station to Chenggong station via the Chengzhui line are popular among students for having the double meaning of "success in getting a good grade." If pronounced slightly differently, it could also mean "success in getting married."[2]

The station was opened on 15 May 1905.
