China Railway Zhengzhou Group, officially abbreviated asCR Zhengzhou orCR-Zhengzhou, formerly,Zhengzhou Railway Administration is a subsidiary company under the jurisdiction of theChina Railway (formerly theMinistry of Railway). It is responsible for the railways inHenan province.
Before the reform of national railway bureaus in March 2005, it also controlled railways inHubei, southShaanxi and southShanxi. The current director of the bureau is Zhang Junbang.
The precedent of Zhengzhou Railway Bureau wasZheng County Railway Station, founded in 1904. It was a station on the railway fromLugouqiao toHankou. DuringChinese Civil War following the end ofSino-Japanese War,Zhengzhou was occupied by thePeople's Liberation Army on October 22, 1948.Zhengzhou Associated Administration Commission, in charge ofLonghai and Pinghan Railways in central China, was subsequently formed. In February 1949, it was renamedCentral China Longhai and Pinghan Railways Associated Administration Bureau. In March of the same year,Zhengzhou Railway Management Bureau of Ministry of Railway of Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Commission was founded.
In September 1958, Zhengzhou Railway Bureau of Ministry of Railway was founded. In the following reorganization of railway bureaus, Ministry of Railway merged Wuhan Railway Bureau and Xi'an Railway Bureau into, and separated them from Zhengzhou Bureau several times. In the reform in 2005, Wuhan and Xi'an Bureaus were again separated from Zhengzhou Bureau.
Because the railway sections controlled by Zhengzhou Railway Bureau are the intersection of several major railway arteries in mainland China, Zhengzhou emerged into a railway transportation hub in China, and boasts influential status in China's railway history. DuringCultural Revolution, Zhengzhou Bureau was once administrated by PLA army to ensure the normal operations.
The railway administration was reorganized as a company in November 2017.[1]
