The {{Nihongo|'''Osaka Line'''|大阪線|Ōsaka-sen}} is a railway line in Japan owned by [[Kintetsu Railway]], connecting [[Osaka]] and [[Mie Prefecture]] via [[Nara Prefecture]]. The line is the longest double-tracked railway of non-JR operators. Together with the [[Nagoya Line (Kintetsu)|Nagoya Line]], this line forms the route for Kintetsu limited express services connecting [[Osaka]] and [[Nagoya]] in competition with the [[Tokaido Shinkansen]].
