Racecourse only has one 'island platform', and do not indicate which direction the trains are going (e.g. Lo Wu/Lok Ma Chau). Therefore, passengers need to follow directions of MTR staff and the electronic display for the direction of trains which pass Racecourse station every 10-15 minutes.
Exits
There are three footbridges that link the platform to the station concourse near the grandstand. There are no other entrances to access the station. The entry gates have been programmed to not let any person holding a Child Octopus in, as it is against the Hong Kong law.
