One autumn day in the third year of Xuantong in Qing Dynasty (19 1 1), when the shrill train whistle resounded through the sky in Texas, the reputation of "Jiutian Road" and "the gate of Shenjing" once again lived up to its reputation. On this day, the Jinpu Railway was opened to traffic in sections, which was the first railway built and opened to traffic on Texas land. Dezhou Station is the first first-class station on the Tianjin-Shandong section of the Jin-Pu Railway. The connection of this north-south artery makes Texas, which has the reputation of "nine access to heaven", even more powerful.

After the completion of the Jin-Pu Railway, the exchanges between Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Anhui and the Soviet Union have been strengthened day by day. As an important station of the Jin-Pu Railway, Texas will naturally have such exchanges. At that time, although Texas had the reputation of "Nine Reaches and Abundance" and "Gateway to the Capital", it was an agricultural city with no minerals and underdeveloped industries. After the opening of the Jin-Pu line, the high-quality coal from Yanzhou along the line can be easily transported to Dezhou to support the industries of Dexian Arsenal, tobacco processing and iron processing. Industrial products from Tianjin, Jinan, Xuzhou, Nanjing and other industrial bases are also continuously transported to Dezhou by railway; As a big agricultural city, Texas's agricultural and sideline products such as cotton and grain are also shipped out by railway, and the most famous Dezhou spiced boneless braised chicken in Texas is also on the train and sent to the north and south of the river. Judging from the economic situation of Dezhou from the late Qing Dynasty to the Revolution of 1911, the industry and commerce in Dezhou are not surprising, and most of them only serve the residents in the city, boatmen traveling from south to north, and land and water passengers. The reason why Texas can enter the ranks of China's big commercial cities is not so much the development of Texas's commerce as the superior position of Texas's land and water transportation. If the Jin-Pu Railway has brought Texas into a new era of transportation, then the completion of the Shide Railway has restored the convenient transportation brought by the canal. Shide Railway starts from Shijiazhuang in the west and connects with Shitai Railway. Dezhou Station is the terminal of Shide Railway.

After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), Dezhou Station was under the jurisdiction of Tianjin Branch of Beijing Railway Bureau. 1957 Dezhou station was upgraded from second-class station to first-class station. The following year, a new waiting room 1 room was built, with a construction area of 25 18 square meters. The whole waiting room has no columns, and the Soviet-style building pattern is symmetrical and square, belonging to one of the few railway stations with high standards in China at that time. The internal mechanical structure is relatively novel, and there are no pillars inside.

2065438+September 2004, Dezhou Station began to carry out comprehensive transformation. The old waiting room that served for 60 years was demolished, and the third generation station building was built on the original site.
