Hong Kong's Geoff Marshall! Keep up the good work

[@hiddenhongkong]

Thank you!

Just for the record, Kowloon Tong station is not the only station in the MTR system that has separate platforms 1 and 2 serving different lines. Mei Foo station's platforms also are numbered 1 and 2 for both lines that serve there. This is owing to the fact that Kowloon Tong and Mei Foo were two separate stations that were merged together as part of the railway merger. Compare this to Nam Cheong station, which was a single station built with interchanges between the two systems as part of its design.

Excellent as usual. The Railway Museum at Tai Po has also preserved the then Tai Po station master’s office, which was alongside the original entrance/exit to the old platform, along with the ticket counter. Love your videos, brings back many memories from the past!

[@drotochmusic4600]

Excited to see more episodes

[@hiddenhongkong]

Sorry for the delay! Haven't been able to film anything because of the covid outbreak in HK.

[@myjizzureye]

I know that entire line like the back of my hand. Brings back memories.

[@ryancflam]

Great production!

I want to add a few fun facts 1. Mong Kok East was called Yaumati station from 1910-1966 and Mong Kok from 1966-2007. However the station code for Mong Kok East still uses the old MKK(Mong Kok KCR) code 2. Tai Po Kau station was used to be called Tai Po and not Tai Po Market 3. Tai Wai station was nicknamed the wooden station due to it was temporarily made out of wood. 4. There was a branch line between Tai Wo and Fanling from 1950 to 1983 to service the Wo Hop Shek Cemetery 5. Hung Leng station’s main building on the Sha Tau Kok branch line is still standing after closing in 1928. That’s all I have. Thanks

Jesus...HIGHLY underrated video!

[@buizelmeme6288]

I remember you made a video about the Markers that were placed every KM on this line, but I can’t find it. Has it got deleted? Or was I imagine things??

3:14 Actually, the tunnel on the right hand side is not for the Tuen Ma Line to Ho Man Tin. Instead, it is for the East Rail Line to the new underground platforms in Hung Hom Station.

[@hiddenhongkong]

Yeah, you're right

[@FlatEarthKiller]

@@hiddenhongkong Also that tsim sha tsui thing is prob a future extra sidings for east rail line since all the tracks to former Tsim Sha Tsui which was demolished in 1977 were also demolished

[@sergworld]

@@FlatEarthKiller so what is on the left? Any abandoned track or tunnels around hung hom?

[@FlatEarthKiller]

@@sergworld According to Wikipedia, yes it indeed is the old track towards Kowloon station in Tsim Sha tsui

[@FlatEarthKiller]

@@sergworld On the right, there’s a cross harbour tunnel that is being utilised by the east Rai line R trains and is set to commence service in June or July this year

[@chweeshanyuhenry6441]

Did you know of a shell station structure between Sheung Shui and Lok Ma Chau?

[@hiddenhongkong]

Yep, Kwu Tung Station. Who knows when it will actually open though.

[@geometris2179]

If I’m not mistaken, trains also sometimes stop at Racecourse station to enter the Ho Tung Lau Depot.

[@PatheticTV]

The subtitles at the end are so funny...

[@waterpuppies]

I wanna ask, could you go to Lo Wu or Lok ma Chau without actually wanting to cross the border Aka going to station then going back to sheung shui

[@waterpuppies]

I know they are closed I’m asking if they are opened, can u

[@GTHKSub2]

@@waterpuppies ...what....what do...what do you...what do you mean?

[@waterpuppies]

I mean by visiting the station without crossing the border

[@domomot4025]

Time for All the Lines Bonus including the new Harbor Crossing!

[@wantikjasonchiu4711]

How about tuen wan line? I think you forgot to include.

[@hiddenhongkong]

Not finished with the series yet! When the coronavirus situation gets better, I will film Tsuen Wan line and Island line.
