One of five Clyde/EMD G12s built for service on the Kowloon-Canton Railway does some shunting in the compact freight yard at Hung Hom, Hong Kong. At the time of this photo this 1957-built 1,300hp EMD had provided 45 years of service to its original owner. By the fall of 2005 KCR 53 and three other G12s were repatriated back to Australia where they were rebuilt for domestic service. The fifth unit, KCR 51, remains on display at the Hong Kong Railway museum in Tai Po. Many KCR diesels were named, and the plate under the KCR logo on the cab reads "H.P. Winslow". The tracks pictured here no longer exist, as there is no longer any freight service into Hong Kong.

KMB's contribution to the trial was three Dragons and three Super Metrobuses that sported an Alexander look.
Spending less than a second to take a picture, yet years to reminisce over the memories.

The narrow shoulder of Cheong Wan Road in Hung Hom provided this tight, down-on view of the entrance to KCR's locomotive depot. A few EMDs were lined up in the service area while a Siemens Eurorunner ER20 worked the adjacent freight yard. Hung Hom yard was mostly buried beneath The Metropolis residential towers. All of this is now gone, replaced as part of an ever-expanding MTR commuter rail system.

Hung Hom Ferry Pier is a ferry pier in Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is at the reclaimed Hung Hom Bay at the south of Lily Mansion, Whampoa Garden. The original pier, opened in 1979 using Streamline Moderne design from the Star Ferry terminals at Central and Tsim Sha Tsui, was located near the Hung Hom Station, close to the current position of Metropolis Tower. In 1988, the pier was temporarily relocated to the seaside of Hunghom Bay Centre to cope with Hung Hom Bay Reclamation Project. When the project was completed in 1991, the pier was moved to the current location.It opened in March 1991. Fortune Ferry Co., Ltd. operates the "Hong Kong Water Taxi" route via: Kai Tak Public Pier, Hung Hom (South) Ferry Pier, Tsim Sha Tsui East Public Pier, Central Pier 9 and West Kowloon Public Pier. The three local ferry routes are: "Central-Hung Hom" ferry route, "North Point-Kai Tak-Kwun Tong" ferry route, and "Tuen Mun-Tung Chung-Sha Lo Wan-Tai O" ferry route.
