HONG KONG, Sept. 1 (Xinhua) -- The Hong Kong West Kowloon Station (WKS), terminus to the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (XRL), opened for public visit on Saturday.
WKS featured four underground floors, designed for ticket hall, arrival level, departure level and platforms respectively.
A co-location arrangement will be carried out in the station to maximize convenience for passengers.
Hung, who often travels to Xiamen to visit relatives, offered satisfaction to the co-location arrangement. "We can go to Xiamen through a direct access. We no longer need to transfer to Shenzhen first," said Hung's wife, who is visiting the station with his husband.
The high-speed train, named Vibrant Express, has a metallic silver covering the body, with white and red waves on both sides of each carriage.
Staring at a model of the Vibrant Express, a visitor named Wong said, "Vibrant Express is so advanced that I really expect the day when I'm in it."
The Hong Kong Section of the XRL is set to be commissioned on Sept. 23.
