MTR has been rooted in Hong Kong for 45 years, continuously and tirelessly providing safe, reliable and convenient railway services to all. Starting with just one line consisting of nine stations between Kwun Tong and Shek Kip Mei, it has evolved into an extensive network covering all 18 districts of Hong Kong, with a total of 99 stations and 68 Light Rail stops spanning 271 kilometres.

MTR sustains its service levels, invests in renewing and maintaining railway assets, and has been actively introducing advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data analysis to monitor the condition of railway equipment and enhance passenger experience.
