The rail link is fully underground, lies along the south-west coastline of Kowloon Peninsula, east of rail tracks of the Tung Chung Line and Airport Express. Kowloon Southern Link has one underground intermediate station called Austin Station (formerly West Kowloon Station). It is located adjacent to the Canton Road Government Offices, close to Kowloon Station of Tung Chung Line and Airport Express. However, the structures do not provide a direct transfer between the two stations.

Famous quotes containing the words southern and/or link:
“The Great South Beach of Long Island,... though wild and desolate, as it wants the bold bank,... possesses but half the grandeur of Cape Cod in my eyes, nor is the imagination contented with its southern aspect.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“This sand seemed to us the connecting link between land and water. It was a kind of water on which you could walk, and you could see the ripple-marks on its surface, produced by the winds, precisely like those at the bottom of a brook or lake. We had read that Mussulmans are permitted by the Koran to perform their ablutions in sand when they cannot get water, a necessary indulgence in Arabia, and we now understand the propriety of this provision.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
