The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site railway in India has several examples of these in addition to six full zig zags and 3 complete spirals. * A circle route is a totally enclosed system whereby trains always remain in the loop, as in the Glasgow Subway or the London Underground Circle line (before it was extended to run over the Hammersmith branch in 2009). Some metro systems feature several circle lines at once like the Moscow Metro, whose Line 5, Line 11 (unfinished as of 2022) and Line 14 are all circle routes. (en)
