The railway from Saint-Denis to Dieppe is a French 161-kilometre long railway line, that connected Paris to Dieppe on the English Channel coast. It was opened in several stages between 1846 and 1873. The part between Gisors and Serqueux was closed from 2009 to 2013, and the part between Serqueux and Arques-la-Bataille has been demolished.

The now demolished section beyond Serqueux passed through Neufchâtel-en-Bray, and followed the river Béthune downstream until it reached its terminus Gare de Dieppe.
