位於尖沙咀的九廣鐵路總站在1978年被拆除。如今，城市中僅存兩處舊車站的痕跡：六根矗立於市政局百週年紀念花園的柱子 ，和仍然矗立於九龍半島尖端的「前九廣鐵路鐘樓」。李明揚博士將探討那些保留火車站的嘗試，在其中一個新興的公民社會尋求來自地方政府、倫敦官員，甚至英女王的幫助。同時，他也會探討香港人，以及倫敦和香港的官員如何思考地方與人民之間的關係。

The Kowloon railway terminus in Tsim Sha Tsui was demolished in 1978. Today, only two traces of the old station remain in the city: six columns standing at the Urban Council Centenary Garden, and the now ‘Former Kowloon-Canton Railway Clock Tower’, still on the tip of the Kowloon peninsula. Adonis M. Y. Li explores attempts to preserve the station, in which a nascent civil society searched for help from local government, London officials, and even the Queen. He explores how Hong Kong people and officials in both London and Hong Kong thought about the relationship between place and people.
