Proposed merge with Track gauge in Hong Kong
editNot notable enough as independent article. Can be merged there. ««« SOME GADGET GEEK »»» (talk) 17:12, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose. This is part of the "track gauge in For" series. 1.64.48.46 (talk) 08:44, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose. Makes the other article more complicated, or too long. Peter Horn User talk 14:40, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

More details on the MTR financial strategy
editI found that the articles only talk about the MTR investment of property holdings as the main revenue income. Ticket revenue also contributes to a significant amount. According to an interview done CNN, the "farebox recovery rate", also known as the percentage of income derived from ticket sales weighed against operating expense, is incredibly high for MTR, between 150%-180%. Meanwhile, other metro transit systems in the U.S only had a 60% farebox recover rate. This should also be a critical factor for the success of the Hongkong Transit system. https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/hong-kong-mtr-success-story/index.html Martinmadison (talk) 17:51, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
