There's a milestone #30 at the North Bound platform of Sheung Shui MTR Station, is that the one which used to be here?

This is a track chainage marker, as Sheung Shui Station is 30 km from start of the East Rail track at Hung Hom Station.

Which means there are some more track chainage markers at other stations?

there's one on the northbound platform of Kowloon Tong and you can see them along side the track as you emerge from the Beacon Hill tunnel in Tai Wai.

There are also track gradient signs along the track as shown on  https://gwulo.com/node/17649
