History
editThe station was established in 1953 as Zhengzhoudong railway station (Chinese: 郑州东站) when the freight yard of Zhengzhou railway station was separated from it.
In 2011, since the high-speed railway station in Zhengzhou on the Beijing–Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong high-speed railway was named as Zhengzhoudong, this station was renamed to its current name to avoid ambiguity.
