Racecourse (Chinese: 馬場站) is a station on the HK-MTR lines|East Rail of Hong Kong. It was opened in 1983 and is only used on race days and special days held in the Sha Tin Racecourse. There are single journey tickets to the station available separately. It is linked with Sha Tin and University stations, and is a parallel station with Fo Tan.

tation layout

Racecourse only has one 'island platform', and do not indicate which direction the trains are going (e.g. Lo Wu/Lok Ma Chau). Therefore, passengers need to follow directions of MTR staff and the electronic display for the direction of trains which pass Racecourse station every 10-15 minutes.

Exits

There are three footbridges that link the platform to the station concourse near the grandstand. There are no other entrances to access the station. The entry gates have been programmed to not let any person holding a Child Octopus in, as it is against the Hong Kong law.
