Platforms
Platform <span style="color:#076414>1  Kwun Tong Line towards Tiu Keng Leng (Choi Hung)

Platforms 1 and 2 share the same island platform. Space was reserved for the platforms of the East Kowloon Line when this station was built in the 1970s. This can be seen behind the advertising panels for each platform. The reserved platforms are rugged rocks/stones which remain untrimmed behind the advertising panels. This station will also be a station on the proposed Sha Tin to Central Link (with two new island platforms and two new platforms).

Future development

Diamond Hill Station will become an interchange station on the East-west Line and Kwun Tong Line, after the completion of the Hung Hom to Tai Wai section of the Sha Tin to Central Link in 2018. The current station will expand.
