Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Hong Kong English Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox station Fo Tan (Шаблон:Zh) is a station on the Шаблон:Lnl of the Mass Transit Railway (MTR) system in Hong Kong. It is located in the Fo Tan area of Sha Tin District, between Шаблон:STN and Шаблон:STN stations on the East Rail line's main branch. The Шаблон:STN is located parallel to Fo Tan, on the line's Racecourse branch.

The passenger station serves some apartment buildings, villages, and a medium-sized industrial zone, as well as the Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi of the MTRC. During rush hour, some northbound trains terminate at this station before departing southwards. Some trains do not run through this station on race days, and are instead diverted to stop at the Racecourse.

History

Fo Tan station opened on 15 February 1985, two years after the total electrification of the railway. It was featured at the end of the 1989 film Mr. Coconut, starring Tony Leung Ka-fai.

Fo Tan Goods Yard

In addition, two tracks spur off at the northeast of the station, and lead into a goods yard north of the station. Freight trains stopped there regularly[1] before their demise on the East Rail line in 2010; the yard has since been used occasionally for rolling stock deliveries.[2]

Station layout

The station has three tracks, with two island platforms between.

Trains normally stop at platforms 1 and 4. The centre track is used in the following occasions:

  • for special southbound departures during morning peak hours,
  • for southbound stopping when there are trains heading to/from the depot, or Racecourse station during race days, or
  • to serve as a buffer so that non-stop through trains can overtake local trains.

Originally, the southern concourse was the only concourse in this station. Because the two concourses were built in separate years, they were not originally interconnected. MTR renovated the station in 2015, connecting the two concourses in the process. The new link opened on 12 December 2015.[4]
