Taichung Train Station was built in the 6th year of Taishō era (1917). It is an architecture imitating the station style of western Renaissance in Japanese occupation period as well as a product under Meiji Restoration promoted by Japanese Government. The establishment of Taichung Train Station is the symbol for an era and a landmark of a city. Its establishment represents the development of Taichung City and the evolution of railway history in Taiwan. The architecture of Taichung Train Station is very similar to the Government-General of Taiwan during Japanese occupation period. The central roof in the main body of the architecture is decorated with a magnificent clock tower, and it is the most eye-catching symbol. Whitewashed finish encircled in bands matches with the red brick surface still looks grand and imposing today even after so many years. It was announced a national historic site in 1995. The old station is now suspended for use and is one of the most complete train stations surviving in Taiwan. Visitors can enjoy the landscape of the co-existence of old and new...

Old Taichung main station that has now been turned into to a museum. The station was built in the old Japanese colonial style similar to the presidential palace. Inside the main hall the old ticket counter and the train info board have been kept. The other end of the hall has exhibition that shows the history of the station. The old gate as well as the platforms are kept as well, along with sections of the train track. Two vintage of train cars were kept as well, with one turned into a small cafe and the other one a souvenir shop. Part of the platform is now occupied by a small open air market selling desserts and trinkets. At the far end of the platform at track level there are benches for you to rest. It is a nice place to reminisce the old station, but it is obvious that it is too small and one can imagine how crowded it it can get. Even though the new station is bigger it is...

舊臺中車站坐落於中區臺灣大道一段1號(原建國路172號)舊市區一帶,日治時期為橘町三丁目22番地,是臺中、彰化、南投等地的玄關口,轉乘運輸十分發達。過去曾經因為臺灣省政府設於中興新村、臺灣省議會設置在霧峰,成為中部政治、文化、經濟交通樞紐。1995年時曾經因為臺中市區鐵路地下化的規劃進行,臺中火車站保存廢與去留曾經因此而成為了各界所關切課題,後來經過內政部公告為臺閩地區第二級古蹟(國定古蹟),保存這具有意義火車站。[6]且惟隨臺中市近來市區西移的因素、臺中舊市區逐漸沒落,致使鐵路運輸受到公路客運競爭,高鐵臺中站啟用後再次受到影響,但仍是中臺灣主要交通樞紐之一。

民國98年(2009年)9月起由鐵工局規劃的臺中鐵路高架捷運化工程動工,隨後於民國101年(2012年)在第二代車站東北側進行高架站房新建工程。民國105年(2016年)10月15日20時55分,第二代臺中車站發出最後一班北上150次自強號列車,以及南下2243次區間車在10月5日晚上21:01分發車後,便結束自1917年完工以來長達99年6個月又15天的營運,以及設站以來原平面鐵路、車站、月台111年的歷史[7],2016年10月16日,運輸功能正式被第三代新臺中車站取代。[8]

第一代車站 編輯 臺中車站於日治時期明治38年(1905年)5月15日設立,6月10日第一代車站「臺中停車場」竣工,是由朝倉政次郎設計的日式木造日本瓦建築,木造平房,類似許多未改建的小站,首任站長為塚澤力太郎。1905年(明治38年)縱貫鐵路已至葫蘆墩(豐原),第一代車站「臺中停車場」和葫蘆墩、潭子墘、烏日、大肚、蕃子田(王田)等這些停車場也同時在5月15日這天落成後並且正式營業。為了要與鐵路的施工配合,並且也特別重視到臺中火車站前繁榮。[6]

明治41年(1908年)4月臺灣縱貫鐵路全線通車,站區興建火車頭的機關庫,設有臺北保線區臺中派出所,同年10月24日在臺中公園舉行全線通車大典,日本皇室閑院宮載仁親王來臺參加,「湖心亭」即是當時為慶祝鐵道開通所建的紀念地標。明治44年(1911年)8月改制為臺中保線區,並興建保線事務所,同年日本政府在臺中進行市區改正都市計畫,形塑了今日站前街道輪廓,也因為都市的發展,舊站房逐漸不敷使用而進行重建。

2017年2月,第三代臺中車站第二期工程進行時發現疑似初代車站時期的機關車庫維修坑道遺構,隨後台鐵局配合市府要求延後高架化相關工程並原地保存展示。[9]2018年11月,文史團體與當地民意代表在二代站體西側意外發現初代站體事務室並未被拆除,只是淹沒在後期增建設施裡,成為臺灣唯一三代站體尚存在的鐵路車站,旋即提報文資審議[10]。2021年8月,將第一代停車場事務室納入進國定古蹟範圍。

第二代車站 編輯 1917年(大正6年)3月31日,第二代車站「臺中驛」完工,由臺灣總督府交通局鐵道部工務課設計,車站主體為紅磚造,屋頂為洋式木構造銅板瓦,月台則為鑄鐵構造,與總督府(今總統府)同屬「後期文藝復興式建築風格」辰野金吾式建築,乃至於車站內部候車大廳挑高設計與玄關梁柱上精細雕塑和拱形的橫梁,則顯出日人想要將臺中車站能設計成中臺灣出入門戶的氣派企圖[11]。同年9月,車站外緣木造迴廊完工,基座、柱頭、及橫梁接頭均有裝飾,入口處亦有雙柱等變化[12]。隨後在大正12年(1923年)4月皇太子裕仁(後為昭和天皇)抵臺中巡視,官員、民眾於車站列隊歡迎。昭和10年(1935年)4月21日臺灣發生新竹-台中地震,站房嚴重受損。同年6月臺灣旅行俱樂部成立,在臺中車站設有支部[13]。二次大戰期間,盟軍對臺中實施空襲使車站受損。

二戰後時期民國37年(1948年)3月起改由臺灣鐵路管理局營運,由於客運量增加,在車站右翼仿造原樣式、材質進行擴建,於民國39年(1950年)10月完工,民國59年(1970年)7月臺鐵局宣布新竹、臺中、臺南及嘉義將開闢貨櫃裝卸車站,民國75年(1986年)臺中-豐原間的臺中線雙軌工程鐵路通車。內政部於民國84年(1995年)指定臺中車站站體、前門廊與第一月台為二級古蹟(今為文化部所轄國定古蹟),同年車站屋頂更換為鋼浪瓦,然而在民國88年(1999年)臺灣發生九二一大地震,車站再次面臨嚴重損傷,站體以鋼骨及鋼板作為安全補強,於民國94年(2005年)整修完畢[14]。

2016年(民國105年)臺中鐵路高架化工程通車,第三代新臺中車站啟用,原舊前站站房雖結束運輸功能,但因新站入口尚未完工,仍繼續作為新站與建國路側互相往來的臨時出入口。2017年(民國106年)6月原第二月台開始拆除改建。[15]

舊站房在新站第二階段工程完工之後,原地保留為臺中車站前廣場地標,並結合周圍相關文化資產轉型為文化設施[16]。2021年8月,將第二月台納入進國定古蹟範圍。

舊後站 編輯 原臺中後站最初為糖業鐵路中南線的鐵路車站「中南驛」,於日治時期1916年(大正5年)帝國製糖(後併入大日本製糖株式會社)始建中南線時建造。臺灣糖業於二戰後時期後由臺灣糖業有限公司管轄,民國40年(1951年)中南線納入臺灣糖業鐵路南北平行預備線並開辦客運,直至1959年(民國48年)因八七水災嚴重毀損南北平行預備線才停辦客運。民國53年(1964年)原中南線臺中站站房改建為臺鐵臺中線臺中車站後站,並於2004年(民國93年)被臺中市政府文化局指定為臺灣歷史建築。直到2016年(民國105年)臺中鐵路高架化工程通車,第三代新臺中車站啟用...
