Stations

Due to construction of Suzhou East railway station of the Tongsujiayong railway, Huayun station is not yet opened for service, where also causes the scissors crossover of Sangtiandao unusable. Trains could not turn around there. As such, line 6 is currently operating as two sections, with transfer at Nanxiebu station:[3]

  • Suzhou Xinqu Railway Station - Nanxiebu
  • Nanxiebu - Sangtiandao, under single track for shuttle service.
