The '''Gaya Line''' is a railway line of [[Korail]] in [[Busan|Busan Metropolitan City]], [[South Korea]], connecting [[Sasang station (Korail)|Sasang]] on the [[Gyeongbu Line]] with [[Beomil station (Korail)|Beom-il]] on the [[Donghae Line]] via [[Gaya station (Korail)|Gaya]], where the line also connects to the [[Bujeon Line]].

==History==
The {{convert|8.3|km|abbr=on}} line was originally opened by the [[Chosen Government Railway]] on 10 June 1944 as the '''Busan Marshalling Yard Line''' between Sasang and [[Busanjin Station (Korail)|Busanjin]]; after the end of the [[Pacific War]] and the subsequent [[partition of Korea]] the line was taken over by the [[Korail|Korean National Railroad]], which renamed it '''Gaya Line''' on 1 September 1955.<ref>대한민국관보 교통부 고시 제432호 (1955.08.30)</ref> On 21 January 1968 the line's terminus was changed from Busanjin to Beom-il.<ref> 대한민국관보 철도청 고시 제3호 (1968.01.13)</ref>

On 2 December 2002 commuter passenger service on the line was discontinued, and on the 28th electrification and double-tracking of the line was completed.
