Line 6 Branch train

Line 6 Branch (simplified Chinese: 六号线支线; traditional Chinese: 六號線支線; pinyin: Liùhào Xiàn Zhīxiàn) of the Shenzhen Metro, also known as Branch Line 6, is a metro line in Shenzhen. Despite being nominally the branch of Line 6, it is actually a separate line, whose color, train type and train numbers are all different from those of the main line of Line 6.
