====Karachi Circular Railway====
[[Karachi Circular Railway]] is a partially active regional [[public transport|public transit system]] in Karachi, which serves the [[Karachi District|Karachi metropolitan area]]. KCR was fully operational between 1969 and 1999. Since 2001, restoration of the railway and restarting the system had been sought.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://nation.com.pk/10-Aug-2020/chairman-railways-visits-kcr-track |title=Chairman Railways visits KCR track |date=10 August 2020 |access-date=28 August 2021 |archive-date=14 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210114150332/https://nation.com.pk/10-Aug-2020/chairman-railways-visits-kcr-track |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=https://tribune.com.pk/story/2260409/supreme-court-gives-four-more-months-to-overhaul-railways |title=Supreme Court gives four more months to overhaul railways |date=20 August 2020 |access-date=28 August 2021 |archive-date=20 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210820124938/https://tribune.com.pk/story/2260409/supreme-court-gives-four-more-months-to-overhaul-railways |url-status=live }}</ref> In November 2020, the KCR partially revived operations.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.dawn.com/news/1591237/karachi-circular-railway-begins-partial-operations-today |title=Karachi Circular Railway begins partial operations |date=19 November 2020 |access-date=28 August 2021 |archive-date=14 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210814091641/https://www.dawn.com/news/1591237/karachi-circular-railway-begins-partial-operations-today |url-status=live }}</ref>

KCR was included in [[China-Pakistan Economic Corridor|CPEC]] by [[Shehbaz Sharif]] and construction started in 2022. Existing 43&nbsp;km KCR track and stations would be completely rebuilt into [[automated]] [[rapid transit]] system with [[electric locomotive|electric trains]]. The route would not be changed however many underpasses and bridges would be built along the route to eliminate 22-level crossings. New KCR would be similar to [[Lahore]]'s [[Orange Line (Lahore Metro)|Orange Train]]. New KCR would have joint stations with [[Karachi Breeze|Karachi Metrobus]] at points of intersection. Project would be operational by 2025.

With its hub at [[Karachi City railway station|Karachi City station]] on [[I. I. Chundrigar Road]], KCR will connect the city centre with several industrial, commercial and residential districts within the city.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/karachicircularrailw/ |title=Karachi Circular Railway Revival, Pakistan |publisher=railway-technology.com |access-date=4 October 2012 |archive-date=7 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121007082233/http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/karachicircularrailw/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
