The MTR Light Rail route 506P special service's first operation day. The service departs at 7:20 and 7:35 from Tuen Mun Ferry Pier and goes to Siu Hong via Lung Mun, Tuen Mun and Pui To. This is to relieve the overcrowding on bus route 506 around Lung Mun. The first train (411) changes to a route 615P train after arriving at Siu Hong. The second train (412) continues to Tin Yat on Route 751 after arriving at Siu Hong, then it continues to Tin Shui Wai as a Route 706 train (didn't happen on the first day, but the second day did). Finally, it returns to Tin Yat as a Route 751P train (unable to verify). Route 506P has its own LED display and announcements. The front display is like route 507P, but the side display only shows the stop it will pass. The announcement is the same format as the experimental MTR-style announcements that were briefly tested in 2014, not a remix of ex-KCR-style announcements. Looks like new Light Rail routes like Route 507P and 506P only use Phase 4 vehicles.

輕鐵506P綫是港鐵在2023年9月開始運行的上學天特別班次，由屯門碼頭經龍門、屯門、杯渡前往兆康，屯門碼頭一共開7:20及7:35兩個班次，用於疏導506綫巴士在龍門一帶的乘客。第一班次(411)到達兆康站後改為繼續行走615P綫，而第二班次(412)到達兆康後則直通751綫行走至天逸站，其後再行走706綫至天水圍站（首航日沒有此安排，翌日有），最後再以751P綫前往天逸（暫時未能確認）。506P綫有自己的電牌及路線廣播，車頭電牌跟隨507P格式，但側邊電牌只顯示途經車站，廣播則使用2014年港鐵化試驗廣播的格式錄製，而不是用舊有九鐵廣播合成。似乎506P綫和507P綫等新的輕鐵路線只會使用四期列車運行。
