There are three island platforms.

Service

All service classes of the TRA except the Taroko Express. This is because the Taroko class is exclusively used on the northern half of the Eastern Line. Only the "Puyuma Express" runs the full length from Taipei to Taitung after electrification of the Eastern Line was completed in July 2014.[1]
