Noarlunga Railway Line is a rail route in Adelaide, South Australia, that travels from the Adelaide Railway Station to Noarlunga Centre in the city's south.

The line was known as the Marino and Hallet Cove line when it finished at Hallet Cove. (Most trains terminated at Marino with only about a quarter going to Hallet Cove).

Noarlunga Extension

Before the extension of the line to Noarlunga Centre line in 1978, a line ran from Hallett Cove station on a different route to Willunga, South Australia (southeast of Noarlunga). After the new Noarlunga Centre line was opened, the old line to Willunga was closed.

Seaford Extension

In late 2005, the State Government announced that as part of a greater infrastructure development, the Noarlunga line would be extended 5.5km to the outer metropolitan suburb of Seaford, South Australia. Expected to cost AU$100 million, it will include bridges over the Onkaparinga River and two new stations at Seaford Meadows and Seaford itself. Work is tentatively planned to begin in 2010[link].
