History[]

The station in 2011

The station was opened on 3 May 1991 along with the final section of the Guangzhou–Maoming railway.[1]

The name of this station was changed from Maoming East to Maoming on 10 September 2016. Another station, previously called Maoming, was renamed at the same time.[2]

On 21 October 2019, a new station building south of the railway was opened, while the old station building situated north of the line was closed.[3] The north station building was subsequently demolished, and the new building is expected to open in 2021.[4]
