The Northeastern Line is a railway line in Thailand that connects the capital Bangkok with the northeast region of Isan. The section from Bangkok to Nakhon Ratchasima is Thailand's first line that opened for passenger service.^[2] The line is also a key section on the central route of the Kunming–Singapore railway.

The Northeastern Line shares tracks with Northern Line between Bangkok and Ban Phachi Junction. It has three main branches:

• Ubon Ratchathani Main Line, between Bangkok and Ubon Ratchathani
• Nong Khai Main Line, between Bangkok and Nong Khai, branching off after Nakhon Ratchasima. The line also crosses the Thai-Lao border into Thanaleng, with an extension to Khamsavath railway station being opened in 2023.^[1]
