The Afula-Nablus Railway, also known as the Samaria Railway (Hebrew: מסילת השומרון), was a branch of the Jezreel Valley railway with a track gauge of 1050 mm,[1] that was originally intended to connect Jerusalem to the main branch of the Hejaz railway via the Haifa–Dera'a Line. These plans were never completed, and the line terminated at Nablus. The line stopped running in 1932 due to lack of traffic.
