The Cromer Line was a railway branch in Norfolk, England that connected the railway junction of Melton Constable with Cromer on the sea. It was first opened in 1887, as part of the rapidly expanding Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway. It closed to passengers in April 1964, and to goods trains later that year.

Part of the route now forms part of the preserved North Norfolk Railway.[1]
