if transferring in Shenzhen, I suggest you book the train ticket in advance. And you are right that much more high speed trains run between GL and Guangzhou and they will take you to Guangzhou South. After arriving, you can take subway line 2 to Gongyuanqian, where transfer to line 3 to local East Train Station. There you can take a train directly to HK within around 2 hours.
