		The KCRC moves some 1 million passengers a day on its 34-km East Rail network between Hung Hom and Lo Wu on the Mainland border; as well as its urban Light Rail system linking residents in Yuen Long, Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai.
		In 1998, the KCRC also embarked on Hong Kong's biggest construction project since the new Airport Core Programme was finished - to build the 30-km West Rail Phase I, which will have a further nine stations, and will add an estimated 350,000 passengers daily by 2003.
		The KCRC currently has around 2,500 IT users, says Tang, ranging from executives and office staff to people with hands-on responsibility for keeping the trains on track and on time, all of them require a greater or lesser degree of computer service.

		The line was extended from Hung Hom (KCRC), the previous terminus, to Signal Hill, where the new station is located, through a tunnel beneath Salisbury Road Hong Kong.
		(KCRC is also considering adding more signs in Simplified Chinese at all stations for the convenience of tourists from Mainland China.) Apart from the high fare, the considerable distance between the station and the MTR Tsim Sha Tsui (MTR) station makes interchanging with the MTR no easier than changing trains at Kowloon Tong.
		When the KCR West Rail is extended through the Kowloon Southern Link (KCRC) (which has just started construction), the terminus of East Rail will be relocated back to Hung Hom, with East Tsim Sha Tsui becoming an intermediate station on the West Rail.

		This led the KCRC to switch to manual operations to relieve stress on the trains, and this led to a reduction in the quality of service (to a level which is still vastly superior to anything you might find in, say, England).
		There's no need to talk down the share price of the KCRC as it's government owned, and likewise, most of the MTRC is government owned, so there's no real need to talk their share price up.
		A stream of safety incidents and lack of reliability on the part of the KCRC will go a long way towards convincing the public that the KCRC should be absorbed by the MTRC, however.
