TRAIN
As the train station is relatively central rail travel has the advantage of saving a long
commute to an outlying bus station. Just inside the main ground-floor entrance, the MTT
sub-office (train station, near south door; 9.30am-6pm) can sell tickets (with commis-
sion) if the queues upstairs look too daunting. Passport required.
