Isn’t the high speed rail network a nationwide initiative?

yes it's really access for HKG to the full Chinese HSR system - you can commute to Shenzhen, I'm told it's still a sl,owish process (only been open a month or so)

A good chunk of the travel time savings is mostly just shuffling the process around; rather than travel to the border Lo Wu and go through border checkpoint there, you do border clearance in West Kowloon.

People with electronic pass and CRH card can use the train as easy as riding a metro

Sadly as an APEC card holder I can get a Hong Kong e-pass attached to my passport (to enter Hong Kong), but not the equivalent for China
