This paper outlines the past, current and future development of intercity train service between major cities in Mainland China (including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou) and Hong Kong. It also describes the role of intercity train service in fostering the social and economic development of Hong Kong and Mainland China, particularly Guangdong province. The cross-boundary passenger markets and profiles are analyzed, followed by an elaboration of major business initiatives to address the identified market and passenger needs. Finally, in view of the rapid development of high speed rail network in Mainland China, it looks into the challenges and opportunities to the existing intercity train service.
