The Jersey City and Albany Railway was a railway company in the United States. It was incorporated in 1878 to acquire the property of the bankrupt Jersey City and Albany Railroad. It extended that company's line 13 miles (21 km) north, from Tappan, New York, to Haverstraw, New York. The company was consolidated with the North River Railway in 1881 to form the North River Railroad. Its line eventually became part of the West Shore Railroad main line.
