The China-Laos railway made its first completed station's debut show on Friday in Phonhong. The Phonhong railway station, with a maximum capacity of 300 passengers, has a total area of around 1,500 square meters. The design of the station is a mixture of Lao and Chinese style, with a Lao-style yellow roof and Chinese-style brackets in its facade. According to the Chinese engineering company, China Railway Construction Group Co., Ltd.
