History
editThe railway station was originally built in 1929 during the Japanese occupation of Taiwan as Hakukōkau Station (伯公岡驛). In 1955, it was renamed to Fugang. It underwent renovation in 1988 which modified its appearance.[1]
The station is a commuter station and is only served by local trains with less than 12 carriages.
