The Alcester–Bearley branch line was a 6+3⁄4-mile single-track branch railway line in Warwickshire, England. It was built by the Alcester Railway Company. It connected the manufacturing town of Alcester into the Great Western Railway network, opening in 1876. Running through sparsely populated country, it was never commercially successful. During World War I it was closed and its track used in support of the war effort. During World War II it brought Coventry factory workers to a relocated manufacturing plant near the line when their own factory had been bombed. The line closed in 1951.
