The Ocean Shore Railroad was a railroad intended to run between San Francisco and Santa Cruz, California. The 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and financial difficulties prevented the railroad from completing construction. It operated as two discontinuous segments from 1905 to 1920: San Francisco to Tunitas Glen, and Swanton to Santa Cruz.
