MTR: What happens if you go BEYOND Kennedy Town? (GONE OKAY)

Having lived in Kennedy Town for 4 years, I'd always wondered what happens if you don't get off the MTR and go to the forbidden lands instead. Unfortunately it's not a portal to another dimension.

Usually staff comes in to check for people who forgot to get off (and I admit, once I fell asleep and thankfully they saved me).

But this time I intentionally stay inside the train, to find out what secrets lie after the Kennedy Town station.

When the train stopped inside the overrun tunnel, the announcement said: "Correct stopping position" in Cantonese.

imagine the train actually returning to a maintenance depot 💀 probably only happens on the opposite end of the line though (near chai wan)

[speedbirdconcorde]

I have a geographic and schematic diagram of the MTR (courtesy of Riders HK) and the overrun tunnel (refuge siding) runs under Mount Davis

Wow, I wouldnt have the courage to try this out, I wondered about this for my whole life lmao I quite wanna see what would happen if we test that in Tuen Ma Line

You're kind of lucky because the driver on one side will walk to the other cab while doing a check

[Sam-nbrm]

This is actually quite interesting I've never seen this before. The staff will make sure no one's present in the cab first. Interesting experiment indeed!

It cannot go to turn back siding, all passenger must alight at Kennedy Town terminal

[azuma]

Was this done very late at night? Don't understand how the staff could miss a tall foreign man like you while I got caught red handed. 🤣

Now show us what happens if you mix up Chai Wan and Wan Chai every single time — can you survive?

[buscaptain_oda]

imagine someone said english or spanish to you be like:

[cwqchlf]

The train will go to TBS or turn back sidings

As you know, you may contravenes a HK Mass Transit Railway By-laws - "4. Trespass"
(1) No person, unless otherwise authorized by the Corporation, shall-
(a) enter into or upon any part of the railway premises, other than those parts clearly defined by means of notices, indicators and other directions for the use of persons using, or intending to use the railway...

You are lucky no staff to find you, but it not mean allow you to do that, also you will pay HKD$5, 000 of penalty if you really contravenes a by-law.
Hope you don't that next time...🥴

Why no staff check the train, usually they checks 😮

[YG]

Not suggest try to stay at Kwun Tong Line trains after trains terminates at Tiu Keng Leng (Especially after peak hour)
As some trains will direct running back to the depot (Not in service), then you gg

[K-TrainA]

Hey, you are actually not allowed to do this, so don’t try this again!

[losonlo]

Won't the staff find u and ask u to get off?

[misterericwong]

Yo please keep trying out other lines 😂😂😂

[DanChan-qbec]

This actually violated the Mass Transit Railway Bible in the form of trespassing. Passengers aren't allowed to enter the reverse sidings, so try not doing that again 😐
