Nancao railway station (Chinese: 南曹站) is a disused railway station on the Zhengzhou–Xinzheng Airport Intercity Railway in Zhengzhou, Henan, China. The station opened on 31 December 2015,[1] but closed on 25 July 2017.[2] According to CNA, the station was abandoned due to its remote location and low passenger patronage.[2] CNA also found that while the station's facilities remain intact, such as escalators, security scanners and platforms, it described station doors as being shut "all day" and cobwebs clinging to corners of the station.[2] Thanks to development of the city, this station was reopened on September 28, 2024.[3]
