Editing Hung Hom station (section)

== Cross-border services ==
Platforms 5 and 6 were used by [[China Railway]] for cross-border trains to {{Stnlnk|Beijing West}} ([[Beijing–Kowloon through train|Beijing–Kowloon line]]), {{Stnlnk|Shanghai}} ([[Shanghai–Kowloon through train|Shanghai–Kowloon line]]), {{Stnlnk|Guangzhou East}} and [[Foshan railway station|Foshan]] ([[Guangzhou–Kowloon through train|Guangzhou–Kowloon line]]). Cross-border services were first suspended during the [[COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong|COVID-19 pandemic]], then permanently discontinued in June 2024 due to the demand for cross-border travel having been met by [[Hong Kong Express Rail Link|high speed trains]] terminating at [[Hong Kong West Kowloon station|West Kowloon station]].<ref name="SCMP01" /> 

Since April 2024, the cross-border platforms have been being used for the “Station Rail Voyage” exhibition. On 17 January 2025, MTR announced that the restricted crossing zone at Hung Hom Station for intercity through trains would be rescinded from that day onwards.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-01-17 |title=Mass Transit Railway (Cross-boundary Restricted Areas) Notice--(Made by the MTR Corporation Limited under by-law 41B of the Mass Transit Railway By-laws (Chapter 556B))--Rescission of Cross-boundary Restricted Areas at MTR Hung Hom Station |url=https://www.gld.gov.hk/egazette/english/gazette/file.php?year=2025&vol=29&no=3&extra=0&type=0&number=374 |access-date=2025-01-21 |website=[[Hong Kong Government Gazette|The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Gazette]]}}</ref>
