The solar-powered Nankang Science Park Station operated by Taiwan Railways, which opened in July, has now been in service for a full month. The Railway Culture Research Fellowship has specially collaborated with the Taiwan Salt Museum to hold the “Special Exhibition on the Charm of Taiwan’s Railways.” With trains and railway stations as its theme, the exhibition shares the memories of how trains connect people and cities. The exhibition is being held at the Salt Museum and will run until September 12—railfans shouldn’t miss it！

Nankang Science Park Station uses photovoltaic building materials. Thin-film solar panels are installed on the roof and parts of the platform shelter, offering a shading rate of 95% and a light transmittance of 5%. It is Taiwan’s first environmentally friendly and technologically advanced railway station.
To coincide with the event, the Taiwan Salt Museum set up a temporary post office on August 29 to offer visitors a commemorative cancellation stamp. It also launched “Salt Fields and Railway Charm Commemorative Stamps” and commemorative envelopes, which are highly collectible.
