Human ace robot! In 38 months, the world’s largest railway station was built by Yantramanbera, how ‘impossible’?
The world’s largest station is located in China. Chongqing East Railway Station is truly a wonder to the whole world. This station was built in just 38 months by the robot army! The station was opened to the public in May 2025. Even after a year, the surprise is still not gone! 16,000 passengers can use this station simultaneously during office hours. Naturally, curiosity is rising, how could such a big station be built in roughly three years?
Recently, billionaire Elon Musk has fueled speculation about this station. Tesla and X owner visited China with US President Donald Trump. It was then that he posted a video of the construction of the station. Curiosity has arisen as to why he did so. Because Musk has always expressed doubts about public transport. But the ‘story’ of the construction of the station is more curious than his post! However, it is believed that the post-mystery of the mask is also hidden in it!

The rapid expansion of the Chinese city of Chongqing was making it difficult to serve all passengers through stations such as Chongqing North. And from this place a big station is planned. And it had to be done quickly. And that is why the plan to build the world’s largest railway station in terms of volume. Covering a total area of 1.22 million square meters, the station has a total of 15 platforms and 29 tracks, divided into three separate rail yards.
After this great work was done in 38 months, it is called ‘Robot Revolution’. Adversities such as dreary drought, often over 40 degrees Celsius, and rugged terrain have required advanced robotics to be relied upon. Laser-guided four-wheeled screed robots equipped with LiDAR, AI and 5G technology complete the task three times faster and more accurately than humans. Along with that, the labor cost has decreased by 40 percent. The glass installation robots handled the 800kg panels very safely and precisely.

It reduces the risk of accidents by 90 percent. Besides, 24-hour patrolling robots have also helped to complete the work very quickly and safely. It is believed that this is exactly why Musk shared the video. He wants to talk about China’s long-term capabilities in addition to robotics, or high-speed work.
