Xiangshan (Fragrant Hills) station[1] (Chinese: 香山站; pinyin: Xiāngshān Zhàn) is a station on Xijiao line (light rail) of the Beijing Subway. This station opened to public on 30 December 2017.[2] In December 2021 the Beijing Subway added pinyin transliterations to stations which previously had a full English name, thus the Fragrant Hills station is now also named Xiangshan station.

Accidents

On 1 January 2018, tram XJ003 derailed after a malfunction when exiting Xiangshan Station at 2:36 PM with no passengers on board. The tram slid down the tracks with its control lever still at traction position after being lifted back on to the tracks later that day.[3] The station was thus temporarily closed until 1 March 2018 after the derailment.[4]
