" Railway Know It All " Comic


To translate complicated railway knowledge into easily understandable language, the MTR Corporation, cooperated with the Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong (THEi) and the Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI), invites a group of Higher Diploma students studying in Creative Media to create a series of comic stories on railway related topics. Starting from September 2012, not only at the Corporation's new railway project websites where you can find these fun and creative stories, they are also available on newspaper to introduce railway knowledge. The comics will be printed and distributed to schools, libraries and youth centres.
