中新网东莞9月5日电 题:京九线贯通三十载 东莞东站蝶变为湾区活力枢纽

作者 郭军 林灿佳 陈东明

1996年9月1日9点13分,一列挂着“北京西——深圳”方向牌的橘红色旅客列车缓缓驶出北京西站站台。彼时的人们或许难以想象,这条纵贯9个省市、绵延2381公里的钢铁大动脉,将在三十年后彻底改变一座城镇乃至一个区域的命运。

作为京九线最早设立的枢纽大站之一,东莞东站的历史还要再往前推几年。1990年,常平东站开工建设;1992年,京九铁路全线开工,这座小站被定为京九铁路与广梅汕铁路的枢纽车站。1996年京九线全线贯通,常平东站一跃成为连接华北、华东与珠三角的关键节点;次年,车站正式更名为东莞东站。

三十年间,这座车站见证了太多。从年客流量7万人到千万人次级枢纽,从简陋的旧式站场到2015年新站房投入使用,东莞东站的成长曲线,恰是珠三角人口流动与经济变迁的生动写照。而车站所在的常平镇,也因站而兴,赢得了“京九第一镇”的美誉。

三十年后的今天,这座老站正用一组扎实的数据,回应着时代的叩问。

今年“五一”假期,东莞东站交出了一份亮眼的成绩单:五天假期累计到发旅客16.9万人次。5月1日单日到发旅客达43486人次,同比增长22.8%,创下近六年“五一”假期同期客流新高。其中,发送旅客2.48万人次,同比增长10.2%;到达旅客1.86万人次,同比猛增44.8%。

到达客流接近五成的增幅,格外值得关注。在春运期间,东莞东站同样呈现出“到达客流大于发送客流”的鲜明特征。这意味着越来越多人选择“进莞来”——不是为了短暂停留,而是为了扎根、奋斗、生活。从昔日的“民工首站”到如今的人才汇聚之地,客流结构的变化背后,是东莞产业升级与城市魅力的双重跃升。

三十年来,东莞东站与常平镇彼此成就。1995年,常平凭借“京九第一镇”的豪迈登顶东莞镇街经济榜首。铁路带来的不仅是人流,更是物流、资金流与信息流。

当然,发展的道路从来不是一条直线。随着周边城镇轨道交通网络完善,常平枢纽优势面临新的挑战。但也正因如此,东莞东站的升级改造从未停步——从2015年新站房投入使用,到如今谋划高铁(动车)始发站改造。2026年5月28日起,铁路部门还启动了京九线集中修。这座走过三十载春秋的老站,正在书写属于自己的“二次创业”故事。
