The Kronach–Nordhalben railway also known as the Rodach Valley Railway (Rodachtalbahn) in the Franconian Forest in Germany is a single-tracked branch line from Kronach via Steinwiesen to Nordhalben with a total length (originally) of 24.88 km (15.46 mi).
Passenger services were withdrawn on 30 May 1976, goods continued to be transported until 25 September 1994 to Nordhalben.
This factory was still connected to the railway network until 1 August 2002, after when all traffic ceased on the line.
On the remaining eleven kilometres between Steinwiesen and the terminus of Nordhalben the Rodach Valley Railway Society (Eisenbahnfreunde Rodachtalbahn e. V.) has operated a museum railway since 15 September 2007.
It lies just under four kilometres from the village of the same name in the municipality of Geroldsgrün and still has the original classic Bavarian Haltestelle station building, so typical of Bavarian branch lines, which is listed by the Bavarian State Office for Historical Monuments (Bayerisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege).
