The Milan belt railway (Italian: Linea di cintura di Milano) is a semicircular railway linking the railway lines converging on Milan, Italy, with each other and the Milano Centrale station.

The belt railway was built during the reorganisation of the Milan railway junction, completed in 1931. It replaced an older belt line, which formed a complete ring; only part of the southern section of the old line remains in service.
