The Tokyo Waterfront Railway (東京臨海高速鉄道 Tokyo Rinkai Kosoku Tetsudo, or Rinkai Line) is a private railway in Tokyo, Japan, connecting Tokyo to the artificial islands of Aomi and Odaiba in Tokyo Bay. It is served by some trains on the JR Saikyo Line, which continue from Osaki to Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Omiya.

The line opened for service on March 30, 1996 from Kiba to the Teleport, and was extended to Osaki on December 1, 2002. While usually not considered an official part of the Tokyo subway network, the line runs underground for most of the distance.
