Coastlines of Hongkong have kept changing since 1850's because of reclamation. The section between Kowloon and Hunghom Stations on the blue line (KCRC British Section) followed the coastline of the 1910's. If a map of that era is used, it would be easier to understand why the track alignment was designed.

bruh idk how

Arguably the best and most efficient metro in the world. It works so effortlessly because the density of Hong-Kong allows for a single station to offer easy access for many riders being that the developed areas do not take up a lot of space having no spawl.

I’m from Hong Kong. This is accurate.

The East Rail Line wasn't a subway until recently, as it had road crossings before and didn't routinely run. It's not even the first line in MTR metro.

I’m from Hong Kong but even I didn’t know that much about all the history of Hong Kong’s metro system! Really cool vid!

10:22　The section of the East Rail Line to Admiralty station is expected to open on 15th May, 2022.

This is really awesome! Love the detail in which you present this. Also I personnaly think that the MTR is probably the metro system with the most influence on the development of a city and how and where people live. Just amazing.

It transports about 3.5 million people a day(half the population of Hong Kong).

Hong Kong does have amazing transport. I would like to go there.

If you want a broader definition of "railway" you can also extend the time to include tram on Hong Kong Island and peak tram which opened in 1904 and 1888 respectively.

@davidng2336

The trams are operated by RATP Dev Asia, while the peak tram is operated by Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels. IDK why a hotel would run a transit system, to be honest.

OMG! This is amazing!!!

Didn't know that the MTR that I take to skool every day spanned such a large area, also didn't know that they plan to link East rail line to Admiralty, its now the MTR hotspot

The video is amazing. Good Job! Btw. There are somewhere else can be fixed that would be more perfect to the video as following. 1. KCR British Section before rename to East Rail, the Railway line represented in the black and white stripes line. 2. KCR: East Rail used #0089d0 ; West Rail used #c93a95 ; Ma On Shan Rail used #a44c0e ; Light Rail used #f79239 3. The KCR Circle Station Symbols is different to the MTR symbol. Those were be used in the same colour as the line instead of using the black stroke like MTR, and also the symbol size was bigger than the MTR version.

the fact that i remember going to the Ho man tin station on opening day when i was around 6 and that felt like yesterday, it's crazy

Wonderfully illustrated

nice work mate

Extremely spectacular history man

I'm too young to know these! thank you!

It so amazing!! Here also haveTrams and Peak Tram.

Nice and beautiful animation

Крутое видео и крутая музыка! Молодец:)

Great video, please do Singapore and Klang Valley metro next

I did not know that so many stations were so recent!! I live in HK btw

This video is awesome!!!

Can you do a part 2? I like this video but if you added planned extensions then that would be nice

Very accurate representation, love it!

wonderful video

thank you so great

it would be even better if tram system on Hong Kong Island included but this video is awesome enough. well done!

When the vehicular road opened the railway became redundant. Not enough people live in that area to justify a railway

I still remember that day MTR and KCR 2 into 1.

Appreciate, great work! But land reclamation is always in line with the Hong Kong rail history. Hong Kong coastline has undergone though a lot to the current condition, just like the rails
