For reference, here is a summary of a niconico video that went through the evidence for the theory point by point. The note about the stone monuments at the old Qilian station was especially interesting.
The new Danshui line tracks the old one, but I don't know with any certainty whether the stations are the same. It's a pretty convincing prospect either way, but obviously ryukishi can't be talking about the modern line - unless he forgot.
