The reason why it was named Xiaogan North Station instead of Dawu Station was that during the design and planning of the Shiwu Section of the Beijing-Guangzhou High-speed Railway (Shijiazhuang to Wuhan Section), after the then Dawu County leaders fought for it, the high-speed railway The line is planned to pass through Dawu County. Under normal circumstances, the station will be named Dawu Station. However, according to the regulations of the railway department, county-level stations are smaller in scale. Generally, the station size is thousands of square meters. For example, at the beginning, Dawu Station The designed station building area is 3,000 square meters, and the platform scale is 2 stations and 4 lines, which is a typical intermediate station model. If it is defined as a prefecture-level city station, it can be increased to tens of thousands of square meters. Later, after Dawu County fought for it, it was named Xiaogan North Station and was upgraded to a prefecture-level city station. The station area was expanded to 12,000 square meters (of which 4,000 square meters were funded by the Ministry of Railways, and 8,000 square meters were funded by the local government), and the platform scale was changed to 2 island platforms with 2 platforms and 6 lines.
Xiaogan North Railway Station is located in Gaodian Township, Dawu County, Xiaogan City, Hubei Province, 20 kilometers away from Dawu County and 89 kilometers away from Xiaogan City. In reality, it is true that many passengers are misled by Xiaogan North Station when their destination is Xiaogan City. Generally, passengers in Xiaogan urban area take high-speed rail through Wuhan Station.
