During a lunch break at work, I decided to take a light trip. The fan-shaped garage in Changhua City is the destination of this trip, because the traffic at the entrance of the garage is quite complicated, so I chose the adjacent paid parking lot to park.
一個上班的中午休時間,決定來趟輕旅行。位在彰化市的扇形車庫是本次旅行的目的地,因為車庫的入口處交通相當複雜,選擇了鄰近的收費停車場停車。

Walking through the small alleyways, the small bungalows are a childhood feeling.
穿過小小的巷道,矮小的平房是一種童年的感覺。

The indicators along the way are quite clear, so people don’t have to worry about getting lost.
沿途的指標相當明確,讓人不用擔心會迷路。

In addition to the fan-shaped garage, the Taiwan Railway Bureau has also successively remodeled the surrounding old buildings. In addition to revitalizing the abandoned space, it also allows visitors to learn more about Taiwan’s railway history.
除了扇形車庫,台灣鐵路局也陸續改建了周遭的老舊建築,除了活化棄置空間,也讓前來參觀的旅客更了解台灣的鐵道歷史。

Along the way, there are quite a few exhibitions of fan-shaped garage paintings, and each creation is quite realistic.
沿途展示了相當多的扇形車庫繪畫展覽,每幅創作都相當的逼真。

Although it is not yet the opening time, there are quite a lot of tourists at the entrance waiting to enter and visit
雖然還沒到開放時間,但是入口處已經相當多的旅客在等待進入參觀

In the morning of working hours, the garage is not open. The open time for visiting is after 13:00 noon, and 10:00 am during holidays, but the end of visiting time is 16:00, and it is closed on Monday.
上班時間的早上,車庫是沒開放的,開放參觀的時間為中午13:00之後,假日時則是早上10:00,但是結束參觀的時間皆為16:00,星期一公休。

Because it is during the epidemic period, personal basic information and contact information must be left when entering the garage.
因為是疫情期間,進入車庫必須留下個人基本資料,還有聯絡方式。

Entering the factory area, you can follow the signs on the ground, and you can reach the fan-shaped garage in about 5 minutes.
進入廠區內,你可以跟著地上指標走,約5分鐘就能到達扇形車庫。

Heart-shaped fire hydrants are quite rare.
心型造型的消防栓,是相當少見的。

The railway robot installation art was also well photographed, attracting quite a few children to take pictures together.
鐵道機器人裝置藝術也好好拍,吸引了相當多的孩子們一起拍照。

There is a map of the location of the tour route on the wall, probably because the maintenance unit is not good at marketing, so the production is quite simple.
牆壁上有一幅參觀路線位置圖,可能是因為維修單位不善於行銷,所以製作的相當簡略。

The fan-shaped station mainly uses the method of rotation to guide the train to the designated garage for maintenance. These operations were considered quite advanced industrial technologies at the time.
扇形車站主要是運用旋轉的方式,將火車引導到指定車庫內進行維修。這些操作在當時的年代,算是相當先進的工業技術。

While visiting, was lucky enough to see a train driving into the garage.
在參觀時,幸運地看到一台火車行駛進入車庫。

In addition to modern trains, there are also several early steam trains parked in the garage. These old trains have witnessed the history of Taiwan’s railways.
除了現代化的火車,車庫內還停放了好幾輛早期的蒸汽火車,這些老火車見證了台灣鐵路歷史。

The old trains were powered by coal, and the coal was burned to boil the boiler with water, and the steam generated by the water would drive the wheels to move the train forward.
舊式的火車是以煤炭作為動力,燃燒煤炭將將裝有水的鍋爐煮沸,藉由水產生的蒸汽來推動輪子使火車前進。

Next to the fan-shaped garage, there is a three-story landscape building. The top floor of the landscape building can overlook the panorama of the entire fan-shaped garage.
扇形車庫的旁邊,有一個座三層樓的景觀樓,景觀樓頂樓可以俯覽到整個扇形車庫全景。

The landscape building looks towards the garage, where old houses, blue sky, trains, and railroad tracks combine to form a poetic and picturesque scene.
景觀樓望向車庫,老房、藍天、火車、鐵軌,結合出一幅詩情畫意的美景。

Looking down at the turntable for dispatching trains from a height, one can understand the operating principle of the fan-shaped garage, which can not help but admire the wisdom of ancient people.
從高處望下調度火車的轉盤,便可了解扇形車庫的運作原理,這也不禁得佩服,古時人們的智慧。

After visiting the fan-shaped warehouse, there is an inconspicuous welfare agency on the way back, where you can buy a drink or popsicle to quench your thirst. I have to say that the Taiwan Railway Bureau really needs to strengthen the promotion of sightseeing.
參觀完扇形庫,回程的路上有間不起眼的福利社,在這裡可以買個飲品、冰棒解解口渴。不得不說,在推廣觀光的部分,台灣鐵路局真的必須再加強。

Leaving the fan-shaped train station, next to the fan-shaped train station, the Taiwan Railway Bureau has specially opened up a Toba Organ Park, which is an amusement park area specially designed for children.
離開扇形火車站,在扇形火車站旁邊,台灣鐵路局特地開闢了一個戶羽機關園區,這裡是專為小朋友設計的遊樂園區。

The biggest feature of the Toba Locomotive Park is the small train. The steam locomotive drags four carriages. It can take up to 16 people at a time. The ride fee is 150 TWD for 2 people. The train can go around the park 12 times in total. If you are traveling with your family, don’t miss it. END
戶羽機關車園區的最大特點就是小火車,蒸汽火車頭拖著四節車廂,一次最多可搭乘16人,搭乘費方面則是2人150元,火車共可繞行園區12圈。如果是親子出遊,千萬不要錯過喔。END
