TheFyansford Cement Works Railway was anindustrial railway nearGeelong, Australia, built by the Australian Portland Cement Company to carrylimestone from its quarry to its cement works atFyansford.

The railway was notable for including a 1.3 km (0.81 mi) tunnel, the longest rail tunnel inVictoria apart from the underground sections of theMelbourneCity Loop. It had a fleet of one diesel and 11 steam locomotives, the majority of which have been preserved byheritage railway operators, in particular theBellarine Railway.^{[1][self-published source?]}

The line was built in 1926, replacing an earlier overhead ropeway from the quarry to the main works. The railway had two main sections: one from the works depot to an older quarry, and a longer track which used the tunnel and connected to a newer quarry. The length of the main line from the new quarry to the depot was 5.6 km (3.5 mi). The rail track had agauge of3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm), one not often used in Victoria, where the predominant rail gauge was5 ft 3 in (1,600 mm).^[2]

The cement works railway operated until 1966, when it was replaced by an above-groundconveyor belt between a new crushing works on the quarry floor and the cement works. At the time of its closure, the railway's motive power consisted of adiesel-electric locomotive (which was sold to theVictorian Railways), and six steam locomotives, which were donated to preservation societies.

Of the original twelve locomotives, seven (one diesel and six steam locomotives) are still in existence today.^[3] With the relocation to Queenscliff of theAustralian Standard Garratt from theNewport Railway Museum in May 2013, all six steam locomotives existing at the time of the line's closure are now in preservation at theBellarine Railway.
