Where it came from
The Cities of Wonders series was developed to document the architectural heritage of rapidly evolving urban centers, with the Old Taipo Market Railway Station model serving as the inaugural release under the COWHK-1 designation. Released to celebrate the preservation of the 1913 station building, which now functions as the Hong Kong Railway Museum, the set was designed to capture the distinctive Victorian-style colonial architecture that contrasts sharply with the city’s contemporary skyline.
The model was conceptualized by architectural miniaturists who aimed to maintain structural authenticity through simplified geometric forms. By focusing on the station's iconic gabled roof and red-brick facade, the designers sought to provide a tactile representation of local history. Upon its release, the set was well-received by heritage enthusiasts and collectors who favored its focus on historical landmarks rather than modern commercial structures.
