No. High speed rail is not allowed. Only trains from Beijing West railway station qualify. You need to fly to Hong Kong or get a visa.

The HSR clears Mainland Chinese immigration in HK (similar to the UK's arrangement in France and Belgium where you go through UK border in a foreign country) so will not qualify. Only the slow "through train" to Hung Hom station clears Mainland Chinese immigration in Beijing West.
