There was a railway station, Tai Po Kau, right next to where the pier was, and the ferry provided service to islands in Tolo Harbour and Mirs Bay, like Tung Pei Chau.  There were also office for Marine Department and Marine Police (North Section) later re-organized as Marine North Division.  

So the pier is Tai Po Kau Pier, which is about 2.5km south east of Tai Po Market Station.

Hi there,

Back in those days, this type of ferry was also used in the Central - Ma Wan - Tung Chung - Sha Lo Wan - Tai O extremely slow route.
