Experiencing the opening of China's very first high-speed railway

I avidly followed the line's progress. Beijing South would be transformed into a vast, modern terminal dedicated to high-speed services, possibly the largest train station in Asia. In July 1996 I had experienced the earlier South Station returning from Dongbei. It was small, mostly outdoors and open to the weather with very few of the amenities seen in the new generation stations of today.
