Sheng Xuanhuai
It is sometimes conflated with the earlier Woosung Road, whose route it principally shared. That railway had been purchased from its foreign ownersprincipally the British firm Jardine, Matheson, &amp; Companyin 1876 and dismantled for reuse in the Taiwanese coal fields. Sheng Xuanhuai established a new railroad generally along the same path as the old one, although the station was moved over a few streets to the Old North Station. The Songhu was also extended north into Woosung proper and additional stations opened.
