Hong Kong’s main rail systems include the Mass Transit Railway (MTR), the Kowloon (Jiulong)-Canton (Guangdong) Railway (KCR) East Rail, and the Light Rail (LR).
The MTR is, by far, the most efficient, fastest, cleanest, and smoothest rail transport. Running along Hong Kong Island’s north side, it travels beneath the harbour where branches serve Kowloon and Lantau Island. Trains run from 6 am. to 1 am. daily, with the maximum fare of up to HK$13 for a single adult journey.
KCR is a commuter railway that stretches from Hung Hom in Kowloon to the boundary with mainland China at Lo Wu. All, but the express trains to Guangzhou, end at Lo Wu. A visa and special ticket is required to travel to Lo Wu station and into Shenzhen. The KCR runs every 3 to 10 minutes from 5:30 a.m. to 12:20 a.m., and the maximum fare is HK$33.
The LR runs daily from 5:40 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. between the New Territories towns of Tuen Mun and Yuen Long.
Fares range from HK$4 to HK$5.80.
