The Nesttun–Os Line (Norwegian: Nesttun–Osbanen) was a narrow gauge railway between Nesttun now part of Bergen and the community of Osøyro in Os municipality Norway. As the first private railway in Norway it opened 1 June 1894 designed to connect Os to the Voss Line allowing for passenger and freight transport to Bergen and Voss. Despite a boom caused by World War I the railway was eventually driven out of business by competition from road transport which provided faster service.
