The Jedburgh Railway was a nine and a half mile long Jedburgh Railway Company built double track branch railway line in the Borders, Scotland, that ran from a junction south of Roxburgh Junction on the Kelso Line to Jedburgh via three intermediate stations, Kirkbank, Nisbet and Jedfoot.
Authorised in 1855 the line was completed and opened in the July of the next year. The line was run by the North British Railway from opening and was absorbed by the company in 1860. The line closed to passengers on 13 August 1948 the day after large scale flooding took out the bridge over the Teviot at Nisbet. The line closed to freight on 10 August 1964.
