The Schiedam–Hoek van Holland railway is a former railway line and current rapid transit line of the Rotterdam Metro between Schiedam and Hoek van Holland along the Nieuwe Maas, in the west of the Netherlands. The line is an important freight railway, it is 24 kilometres long. On 17 August 1891, the first section between Schiedam Centrum and Maassluis was opened as a heavy-rail line; the section between Maassluis and Hoek van Holland Strand followed on 1 June 1893. In 1935, the entire route was electrified; the Stena Line provides a ferry service to Harwich International Port in Harwich, from the Hoek van Holland Haven station. Other international train services used the line, as far as Moscow or Berlin. Since the opening of the Channel Tunnel in 1994, the importance of this line has decreased sharply. On 31 March 2017, the final passenger trains of the Nederlandse Spoorwegen ran on the line and they have been replaced by a temporary bus service until the line reopened in 2019 as part of the Rotterdam Metro.

The overhead electrification system has been converted to 750 V DC and the railway stations to metro standards. In Maassluis, a new station, Steendijkpolder, is built, but plans for additional intermediate stations in Schiedam and Hoek van Holland have not been specified; the Hoek van Holland Strand station will be moved closer to the beach, as the name suggests. Until 2017, there were five Sprinter trains per hour from Rotterdam Centraal station to Maassluis West and half-hourly services to Hoek van Holland Haven. In the peak season, all trains terminating at Maassluis West were extended to Hoek van Holland Haven, the service between Rotterdam Centraal and Vlaardingen Centrum was increased to every 7.5 minutes. Service to Hoek van Holland Strand was only provided every hour during the summer months. Between April 2017 and February 2018, four rail-replacement bus lines run alongside the regular bus lines; these services were being operated by RET. Rail-replacement services were scheduled to run only until September 2017.

These include more soil contamination and asbestos than anticipated as well as finding cables which had not been documented during preliminary investigations and which had to be removed or, for the ones which were still active, moved. Metro line B from Nesselande runs with 10-minute intervals from Schiedam to Hoek van Holland Haven, half of which will terminate at Maassluis Steendijkpolder. Furthermore, metro line A provides a service from Binnenhof to Vlaardingen West during peak hours; the line will remain open to freight trains, retaining a connection to the national rail network at Schiedam. The line was reopened on 30 september 2019, in a test period of four weeks. On 1 november 2019, the track got an official reopening.
