Alishan Garage has been the highest train garage in Taiwan ever since the Japanese colonial period. Together with Beimen Depot, Chiayi Garage Park, they were the uphill and downhill maintenance sites of the Alishan Forest Railway.
Historically, Alishan Garage has been relocated three times. At the beginning of railway services, it was a wooden garage built on the left hand side of the former Zhaoping Station toward Yuemian, i.e. what is today's Alishan Guo Hotel. Later on in the 1970s, it was moved to the right hand side for a while. After Alishan Station was relocated to the fourth diverging rail in January 1981, the new Alishan Garage was relocated to the extension section at the end of the fourth diverging rail, i.e. the end of the new Alishan Station. It was then a RC structure for storing trains. Ever since the brand new steel structure was completed in 1997, trains for Chushan depart here at 03:00 every day to start the daily operations of the Alishan Forest Railway.
