-**Hung Ngai Tung Station** (Chinese: //紅崖洞站//) is a station in the Sakura Stream Area built by [[mtr_community:staff:bdark000|BDark000]] on behalf of [[/west_lake_transport_authority|West Lake Transport Authority (WLT)]]. It is the temporary northern terminus of [[mtr_letsplay:wlt_line_1|Line 1 (Meyan Line) Phase 1]] before the renovation between [[/northern_snow_village_station|Northern Snow Village]] station and this station is done. It will become a mid-way stop of Line 1 (Meyan Line) afterwards.

 The literal meaning of the Chinese name means //Red Clift and Cave//, comes from the Siberian Taiga biome, clifty terrain and large lush cave near the station. The station also shares a very similar name to a tourist attraction in Chongqing also located at a clift //Hongyadong (洪崖洞)//, but it is just a coincidence.

   * early December, 2023: A small renovation on the stairs is done. Most of the staircases in the station are extended and leave a small space in the middle for better safety and passengers experience. Due to the staircases at Exit C being long, two spaces are added at around 1/3 and 2/3 of their length.
   * 31 December, 2023: As the section between **Hung Ngai Tung** station and Northern Snow Village station is closed for renovation, incoming trains from the south only stop at platform 2 and then reverse back to the south.
-===== Layout (WIP) =====
+  * 18 May, 2024: Platform 1 is used again as the section between this station and Northern Snow Village station has renovated.
+===== Layout =====
-Not counting exits, there are a total of 3 floors in the station. **L1** is concourse and is separated into north and south part not directly accessible to each other, due to [[/kwong_chow_grand_canal|the Grand Canal]] in between. North part connects Exit C, D while south part connects Exit A, B. **L2** and **L3** are platforms under the canal.
+There are a total of 5 floors in the station. **U4** is platform and **U3** is concourse, along with exit A. Exit B is located two floors underneath the concourse at **U1**, the lowest floor of the station. Exit C is in a structure at the northwest of the station, from concourse level **U3** goes up to highest floor **U5** by a pair of long escalators and staircases adjacent.
-Platforms 1, 3 stack on top of platforms 2, 4 on the two sides. In between is the core structure. Under the concourse on two ends, it consists of walls, passages, staircases and escalators. Under the canal, it has the famous high ceiling spacious and open design, with chandeliers hung between the pillars. To facilitate the interchange at the upper platforms, a passageway in the middle is built to further connect up platforms 1 and 3. And since future interchange between [[mtr_letsplay:wlt_line_1|Line 1 (Meyan Line)]] south of Kwong Chow and [[mtr_letsplay:wlt_line_2|Line 2 (Kwong Chow - North Coast Line)]] requires going down from upper platforms to lower platforms, a staircase and two escalators connecting the two floors are also built.
+Platform layout is island platform. It makes the door opening direction different from the previous and next station Northern Snow Village and Sakura Stream Junction, allowing passengers to enter and exit the train at the less crowded side and hence improving efficiency. The island platform layout also requires fewer escalators, stairs and lifts to be built, saving construction costs. Openness in the middle part of the platform, as well as the tree kept in the platform level, is also one of the advantages of the adopted island platform design.
-One lift is serving between north concourse and the platforms, while another is serving between south concourse and the platforms. The lift serving south concourse is larger due to a higher anticipated passengers flow and capacity needed.
+Concourse is underneath the platform. It has extended outwards under the arch of railway bridge for more space putting in a lift and the customer service centre. Passengers can enjoy the view of the lake and the island nearby here. Ticket machine is put at the north and south side of the concourse, near exit C and the escalator to exit B, because of the space constraint. There is also a shop space reserved for a convenience store at the south side of the concourse, near the passageway to exit A.
+One lift is serving between the exits in the non-paid area at the south side, stopping at **U1**, **U3** and **U5**. The lift exit at U5 is assigned to a separate letter D as it is some distance away from the structure of exit C at the northwest side. Another lift is serving between concourse **U3** and the platform **U4**.
