The Mooka Line (真岡線 Mooka-sen) is a Japanese railway line between Shimodate Station in Chikusei Ibaraki and Motegi Station in Motegi Tochigi. It is the only railway line operated by the Mooka Railway (真岡鐵道 Mooka Tetsudō). The third sector company took over the former JR East line in 1988. In addition to regular diesel local trains the line also operates the SL Mooka steam service for tourists using C11 and C12 class steam locomotives.
