The article says:

Unique among MTR stations, the concourse, gates and platform are at the same level, and there is only one platform from which trains depart in the same direction as they arrived. This necessitates the halting of trains from Hang Hau midway between the stations while a train currently at the station departs. At the same time, any trains arriving at Po Lam will only stay for a much shorter moment before departing when compared with other MTR terminials.

But the Disneyland station also has only one platform. And before either of these stations opened, the Hong Kong terminus of the Airport Express was operating with a single platform terminus, much as described above. -- Chris j wood 19:16, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
