The Bärschwil gypsum railway (German: Gipsbahn Bärschwil) was a narrow gauge railway in the Swiss canton of Solothurn. It existed from 1894 to 1952 carrying gypsum from mines in the village of Bärschwil to that village’s former railway station some distance away on the Jura railway line.The mines have now been closed and filled in but some of the line’s route through the village can be identified.
