The Khyber Pass Railway (Urdu: درۂ خیبر ریلوے) was one of several railway lines in Pakistan, operated and maintained by Pakistan Railways. The line began at Peshawar City and ended at Landi Khana.[1] The total length of the line is 58 kilometers (36 mi), and there are 13 railway stations.

Passenger train traffic on the route has been suspended due to security concerns and the 2006 monsoon rains, which washed away several sections of the tracks and damaged bridges.
