The Chips is a passenger train that operates over the Blue Mountains between Lithgow and Sydney.

The name has been applied to various Blue Mountains services over the years and today is a commuter service from Lithgow to Sydney operated by V sets.

Following electrification of the Main Western line in 1958, it was operated by U set single-deck electric trains. These in turn were replaced by double-deck V sets.

It is complimented by another service, The Fish.
