A KCR engine parked south of the Cable & Wireless Station, Hung Hom. One can compare it with the photo in 1968:

It seems at least part if the wireless station has been converted into a car park. The junction north of the car park is Lo Lung Hang street. The junction west of it is Chatham road. At this junction, one can see two iconic signs on top of the building. The left one is Amoy soy sauce. The right one is some kind of wine or soft drink. It later was replaced by the wine Remy Martin Sagittarius sign.

The railroad tracks apparently had not been active for a long time. It is possible they were used for transportation during reclamation.
