The Light Rail was branded as "LRT" (abbreviation of Light Rail Transit) when it came into operation, and was later rebranded as "KCR Light Rail" when the "KCR (British Section)" was rebranded as "KCR East Rail". The logo of LRT which is in orange in colour is no longer in use. However, in Hong Kong laws, it remains "North-west Railway" over the time.

Has anyone got a picture of the trains, and the tickets with the old logo? — Insta ntnood 16:54, May 1, 2005 (UTC)

I have executed a merger (and redirect) from the individual Light rail station articles following the discussion at AfD. Most of the important information has been preserved. The only thing missing is the zone numbers. The table on the chinese page has a different presentation (ordered by zone), and I have not made the format common. Where the station is a KCR West Rail or East Rail station, the articles have been left alone. Ohconfucius 09:14, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

User:Epicgenius recently moved this page from "Light Rail (Hong Kong)" to "MTR Light Rail". But MTR is not part of the proper name. Likewise, the analogous Tsuen Wan Line, Kwun Tong Line (etc) articles are not titled "MTR Tsuen Wan Line" or "MTR Kwun Tong Line" respectively. Nor is "MTR Light Rail" a WP:COMMONNAME. "Light Rail" is both the proper name and the common name in everyday parlance. Hence I think it should be moved back to either "Light Rail (Hong Kong)", or to "Light Rail (MTR)".

If we move Admiralty Station (MTR) to Admiralty Station (Hong Kong) and Airport Express (MTR) to Airport Express (Hong Kong), we might also have to move these articles as well:

The result of the move request was: Moved. ( closed by non-admin page mover) What's in your palette? Paine 11:31, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
MTR Light Rail → Light Rail (MTR) – Page name from 2007 to 2012; all page moves so far have been uncontroversial and not discussed. Per the discussion in the section above, "MTR Light Rail" is not a common name; the system is usually just called the "Light Rail".
Additionally, as with most other transit systems, "(MTR)" is the disambiguator of Wikipedia articles on the MTR's stations (e.g. Central Station (MTR); Airport Station (MTR)) and lines (e.g. Airport Express (MTR)); and not "(Hong Kong)", as this page was named from 2013 (it was moved by me, not knowing that WP:REQMOVE existed, from Hong Kong Light Rail) until this week.
