The Belgian railway line 15 is a railway line in Belgium connecting Antwerp with Hasselt. It was opened between 1855 and 1925. The total length of the line between the Drabstraat junction (between Berchem and Mortsel) and the Zonhoven junction (north of Hasselt) is 92.1 km. Line 15 is not the shortest or fastest connexion between Antwerp and Hasselt: the faster trains take the 14 km shorter route through Lier Aarschot and Diest (lines 16 and 35).
