## History

This station was opened to traffic on 18 September, 1988.

Since this station has two platforms in each direction, in the 1990s, a group sat on one of the tracks at this station to protest the fare increase of **Light Rail**, but basically there was no blockage of Template:Light Rail (KCR) traffic.

In conjunction with the **Light Rail** project attached to the Template:Kowloon-Guangzhou West Rail project, from August to September of 2003, part of the platform at this station was decommissioned in stages to accommodate the new tracks of Pui To Road Viaduct are connected to the tracks of this station.

Starting from 22 July, 2010, this station began to test train arrival announcements, becoming the second station to conduct this test, and a new broadcast will be replaced from 10 August.

After the Liberation Parade in Tuen Mun Park on September 21, 2019, demonstrators destroyed the station facilities and closed-circuit television.

Later, platforms 2 and 3 were closed due to arson and the switch of this station was damaged and rendered inoperable, and have been closed to this day (as of March 11, 2023). Routes using these two platforms Instead, use platforms 1 and 4 for drop-off and drop-off. A representative of the MTR Corporation responded to the former Tuen Mun District Councilor saying that after reviewing the passenger flow on the platform at this station, it is believed that the current operation is smooth, and platforms 2 and 3 are temporarily reserved for backup purposes. In addition, the Light Rail Customer Service Center at this station is still out of service.
