Great Train Express is a planned higher-speed commuter rail network in the Seoul Capital Area project consisting of three separate lines, named GTX A, GTX B and GTX C, and scheduled for completion in 2025.^[1][2][3] The project was first envisioned in the late 2000s, and construction of GTX Line A began in 2019.

Western metropolitan express rail (unofficially named GTX-D)[]

Plans for a Line D have recently been announced by the government. However, the proposed route is facing a lot of opposition, and has not been approved yet. It may also end up as a non-GTX commuter rail line.
