"the fair" 100 years ago
It is now well known that china's first subway was the beijing subway phase, which took place in september 1981. But there is a special “city railway”, which is more than 70 years ahead of the beijing subway phase and is also known by many nanjing as the nanjing subway “old line 1”。

This special “city railway”, which was built in 1909 to facilitate the movement of passengers from outside the country to the scene of the “south pacific lobby” which was actually the original “world expo” in china。
The starting point of the old line, which was at the bottom of the terminal, was that the passengers would be able to board a ship and reach the distance of today's white road through the third floor, the ding jia bridge, the drum building; the railway, originally known as the ning province railway, had also become the beginning of the chinese urban rail traffic。

Proposal — 15 years of dreams in reality
In addition to beijing, tianjin opened the subway in the 1980s, which also succeeded in attracting nanjing's attention. In 1984, 20 delegates from the nanjing hyung-wu district submitted a proposal for “the construction of a subway in nanjing city”, which was also the first record in nanjing subway history。

Eight years later, in 1992, nanjing built a subway pilot site on sansan street to gain experience in subsequent works. In 1994, nanjing subways were re-authorised as “pre-set items”, followed by five years of waiting, and in 1999 they were finally formalized and issued in october of the same year. In the official batch, the metro 1 line was 21. 72 km long, with 14. 33 km underground, 7. 49 km above ground and 16 stations。

Nanjing has waited 15 years since the creation of the subway bill in 1984 and its official reintroduction in 1999, and the dream of nanjing has finally come true
Car access - 57 months of trip, north-south connectivity
On 12 december 2000, a memorable day, in nanjing's minibus, a ceremony was held to begin work on metro line 1, which officially opened a major building on metro line 1 for four years and nine months。

Everything had been relatively smooth in the previous two years, until 2003, when the construction of metro line 1 was described as a “crash trip”。
(1) the sudden appearance of sar, which has affected the duration of the subway work in the current year, since there is a “vacuity period” in the middle
(ii) the historic high-temperature weather, during which cities along the yangtze river experienced the hottest weather since 1951, with a marked increase in the number of high-temperature days, with nanjing, one of the “four furnaces”, heating up, and the summer heat again affecting the pace of construction work
(3) the successive heavy rains, which began in late june, tested in nanjing and revealed signs of sinking along the road from new street to the zhang capital section of the building headquarters, which, fortunately, was conducted properly and quickly, took over three hours to defuse the danger。

It's good to see the rainbow after all the good things have happened! The first tour of the subway, after all the hard work, took place on may 15, 2005. On 3 september, official traffic became the sixth metro-owned city in nanjing. This line, which also forms a special north-south backbone in nanjing, has greatly facilitated the lives of the people。

Extension - a new line 1, a permanent "first brother"
The first metro line, which was built, was not the first line we saw today. It was only from the nanjing orchid, the tomama bridge, and then through the construction of the southern longline, the railing of the secondary line and the construction of the northern longline。

In 2011, the southern extension of the metro 1 line was opened in the nanjing nan station, and later extended to the chinese university of pharmacy; in 2014, the andersmen-simple-ocean sector was fully integrated into line 10; and in 2022, the metro 1 line was officially opened until the gossip land bridge。
So after almost 20 years of operation and extensionNanjing subway line 1The length has been increased from the initial 21. 72 km to 45. 4 km, doubling the length! And above all, for 20 years, nanjing subway line 1 has been the largest subway line in nanjing, and even in the entire jiangsu population, known as the permanent "first brother" of the jiangsu subway line, and i think that this is the special feeling that people have about subway line 1 and that it reflects a 20-year-old memory。

Starfire -- the light lights up the whole province
The nanjing subway line 1 is also of great importance to jiangsu, which led to the subsequent flight of subways in various cities。
In november 2022, line 1 of the south metro was officially operated, also known as the sixth metro-owned city in the province. Let's adjust the time to the other cities

Suzhou line 1: drive through on april 28, 2012
Line no. 1: bus on july 1, 2014
Changzhou line 1: bus on september 21, 2019
Suhzhou line 1: drive through on september 28, 2019
I'm sorry
In the future, i believe that there will be more cities to open the subway, but while we are stunned by the success of the flowering of the jiangsu subway, we should not forget the light brought by the nanjing subway 1 in that time, the fragrance of that moment worth remembering forever
