The Olmedo-Zamora-Galicia high-speed rail line is a railway line partially open in Spain that will link the cities of Olmedo, Zamora and Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia, when completed.

It has a track gauge of 1,668 mm (5 ft 5+21⁄32 in) Iberian gauge, which is due to be converted to 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) standard gauge later.
In Olmedo, the line is due to be connected to the Madrid–Valladolid high-speed rail line.
