A steam train used by the KCR in the 1920s is to find a new home in the New Territories after being rescued from a Philippine sugar plantation and restored.
The Regional Services Department plans to build a platform and shelter to house the engine which engineers have taken more than a year to restore.
The locomotive is in the final stages of restoration, being painted a vibrant green to match the company's early livery.
The Tai Po museum has six carriages and coaches dating as far back as 1911.
The 21-tonne train is one of two bought back by the company last year from a sugar plantation in Negros, the Philippines, for a total of $500,000.
Extensive restoration work has been done by KCR engineers and apprentices on the engine.
Assistant curator of the museum Joanne Chan Lai-wun said the department was calculating funding for the shelter and hoped to display the locomotive from January.
