The Victoria Railway is a historic Canadian railway that operated in eastern Ontario.
Construction began in 1875 from Lindsay, Ontario with authority to build to Haliburton, Ontario through Victoria County.
The line is best known as having been built by a large group of Icelandic immigrants, who found the Kinmount winters too rough, and so they all moved to Gimli, Manitoba.
The line became part of the Midland Railway of Canada and then later part of the Canadian National Railways.
