History

The original station was opened in 1962 with its name "Sungang", expanded in 1973 and changed to its "Shenzhen North" in 1977. Its name was changed back to "Sungang" again in 2008 due to the same name as another "Shenzhen North railway station" in the Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong Express Rail Link.
