The Glen Afton Branch was a branch railway line of 7.5 km in the Waikato Region of New Zealand built to serve coal mines in the Awaroa district west of Huntly at Rotowaro Pukemiro and Glen Afton. Rotowaro is Māori for coal lake. The first 5 km was authorised in 1910 and required a road-rail bridge over the Waikato River with an extension which carried the railway over the main highway.
