The Rajawali–Cikampek railway (Indonesian: Jalur kereta api Rajawali–Cikampek) is a railway line that connects Rajawali Station and Cikampek Station. This route crosses two provinces with 5 regencies or cities, namely Jakarta (Central Jakarta and East Jakarta) and West Java (Bekasi, Bekasi Regency and Karawang Regency). This line is one of the busiest intercity lines in Indonesia and since the 1920s it has been a double track and has been electrified since 1992.
Due to the increasing frequency of use, this line is planned to be made as double-double tracks, which means it has four lines: a pair for long-distance or non-EMUs trains and a pair for trains serving stations. Currently, this dual route plan will reach Cikarang.
There are two bridges that cross two historical rivers: Kali Bekasi (near Bekasi Station) and Citarum (near Kedunggedeh Station).
