Editing Branch line (section)

===Asia===
====Hong Kong====
Two extensions to the [[MTR]] rapid transit network were built as branches of existing lines: the [[Lok Ma Chau Spur Line]] to [[Lok Ma Chau station]], which opened in 2007; and the [[Tseung Kwan O line|South Tseung Kwan O Spur Line]] to [[LOHAS Park station]], opened in 2009.

Earlier, a spur line was built in 1985 on the [[East Rail line]] to serve [[Racecourse station (MTR)|Racecourse station]], bypassing [[Fo Tan station]].

Also, the {{interlanguage link|Tsim Sha Tsui Extension|yue|尖沙嘴支線}} was built in 2004 on the [[East Rail line]] to serve [[East Tsim Sha Tsui station]]. However, after the [[Kowloon Southern Link]] was completed in 2009, this spur line turns into a section of the [[West Rail line]].

Discontinued services include the [[Sha Tau Kok Railway]] and the [[Wo Hop Shek Public Cemetery|Wo Hop Shek Branch]].

A spur line to Siu Sai Wan has been proposed.

'''Delhi'''

On the [[Delhi Metro]], the [[Blue Line (Delhi Metro)|Blue Line]] has a Branch Line with 8 Stations, linking [[Yamuna Bank metro station|Yamuna Bank]] to [[Vaishali metro station|Ghaziabad]] via [[Anand Vihar metro station|Anand Vihar ISBT]] and terminating at Vaishali.

The first section of the Branch opened on 8 January 2010 with [[Anand Vihar metro station|Anand Vihar]] as its terminal with six stations. It was further extended to [[Vaishali metro station|Vaishali]] in 2011. The line is planned to be extended from Vaishali to [[Mohan Nagar metro station|Mohan Nagar]] via Sahibabad Station to link with the main line.

====Singapore====
The [[East–West MRT line|East West Line]] of the [[Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore)|MRT]] system in Singapore has a two-station branch to [[Changi Airport]]. The first station, [[Expo MRT station|Expo]], opened in 2001. It was extended to [[Changi Airport MRT station|Changi Airport]] station the next year.

From 1990 to 1996, the section of the [[North–South MRT line|North South Line]] between [[Jurong East MRT station|Jurong East]] and [[Choa Chu Kang MRT/LRT station|Choa Chu Kang]] stations was operated as a separate line, known as the [[Branch MRT line|Branch line]]. It was merged into the North–South Line with the opening of the Woodlands Extension in 1996. The future [[Jurong Region MRT line|Jurong Region Line]] and [[Cross Island MRT line|Cross Island Line]] will also have branch lines.

==== Bangkok ====
There are two notable spur lines within the [[Mass Rapid Transit Master Plan in Bangkok Metropolitan Region|various rapid transit systems in Bangkok]], of which one is under construction and one has been tendered.
The [[MRT (Bangkok)|MRT]] [[Pink Line (Bangkok)|Pink Line]] will have a spur line reaching into "[[Impact, Muang Thong Thani|Impact, Muang Thong Thani]]", a commercial complex. This spur line, known as the Impact Link, is currently under a [[soft launch]], and is accessible via the [[Muang Thong Thani MRT station|Muang Thong Thani]] station.
The [[SRT Red Lines|SRT]] [[SRT Light Red Line|Light Red Line]] will have a branch line heading towards [[Siriraj Hospital|Siriraj Hospital]] and the adjacent [[Siriraj MRT station|MRT Station]].
