The Moka Line (真岡線, Mo-oka-sen) is a Japanese railway line connecting Shimodate Station, in Chikusei, Ibaraki and Motegi Station in Motegi, Tochigi. It is the only railway line operated by the Moka Railway (真岡鐵道, Moka Tetsudō). The third-sector company took over the former JR East line in 1988. In addition to regular diesel local trains, the line also operates the SL Moka steam service for tourists using a C12 class steam locomotive.

The railway and its operating company are also spelled Mooka Line and Moka Railway, respectively.
