Rail transport in Burkina Faso

There are 622 kilometres of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) metre gauge railway in Burkina Faso, which run from Kaya to the border with Côte d'Ivoire and is part of the Abidjan-Ouagadougou railway. As of June 2024, 'Sitarail' does not operate a passenger train to Abidjan.

Burkina Faso is landlocked, but the railway to Abidjan provides rail access to a port. Links to railways in Ghana and the port of Takoradi have been repeatedly proposed.
