Fu-Hsing Semi-Express (Chinese: 復興號列車) was a series of trains operated by the Taiwan Railway Administration from 1981 to 2022.

Fu-Hsing Semi-Express trains were introduced in 1981.[1] They were the first to be built in Taiwan, and the first Taiwanese trains to have air conditioning.[1][2] The Fu-Hsing's final journey took place on 29 March 2022, and ran from Hualien to Shulin.[1][2] Fu-Hsing trains were replaced by EMU500 and EMU900 series trains, and the Tze-chiang limited express. Fu-Hsing trains that could be refurbished were placed on the South-link line.[1]
