The Caledonian Railway (CR) was a major Scottish railway company. It was formed in the early 19th century with the objective of forming a link between English railways and Glasgow. It progressively extended its network and reached Edinburgh and Aberdeen, with a dense network of branch lines in the area surrounding Glasgow. It was absorbed into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway in 1923. Many of its principal routes are still used, and the original main line between Carlisle and Glasgow is in use as part of the West Coast Main Line railway (with a modified entry into Glasgow itself).

(en) Die Caledonian Railway (CR) war eine britische Eisenbahngesellschaft. Sie existierte von 1845 bis 1922 und ging im Zuge des Groupings der britischen Eisenbahnen zum 1. Januar 1923 in der London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) auf. Nach der North British Railway besaß sie mit fast 1800 Kilometern Streckenlänge das zweitgrößte Streckennetz in Schottland. Es erstreckte sich zwischen der schottischen Grenze bei Carlisle und Aberdeen und umfasste vor allem Strecken in den dichtbesiedelten Lowlands rund um Glasgow und Edinburgh, erreichte mit der Strecke nach Oban aber auch die südlichen Highlands. Der schottische Abschnitt der West Coast Main Line, der wichtigsten Verbindung zwischen London und Glasgow war ebenfalls Teil des Netzes. (de) カレドニアン鉄道（カレドニアンてつどう、英語: Caledonian Railway、CR）は、1847年から1923年に存在したスコットランドの大手鉄道会社である。19世紀初頭にイングランド側の鉄道網とグラスゴーを結ぶ鉄道を形成する目的で設立された後、次第に延伸を重ね、エディンバラやアバディーンにまで路線を延ばす他、グラスゴー周辺の支線網を充実させた。1923年の私鉄大合併でロンドン・ミッドランド・アンド・スコティッシュ鉄道に吸収合併される形で消滅したが、カレドニアン鉄道の主要路線の多くは現在も依然として使われており、中でもカーライル〜グラスゴー間のかつての本線は、グラスゴー付近の線形が改良されたものの、現在もイギリス屈指の大幹線であるウェスト・コースト本線の一部として使用されている。 (ja) A Caledonian Railway foi uma importante companhia ferroviária que operou na Escócia. Ela foi criada no início do século XIX e foi absorvida quase um século mais tarde pela London, Midland and Scottish Railway, no agrupamento ferroviário de 1923, por meio do Decreto Ferroviário de 1921. Devido a complicações legais não foi possível realizar a fusão em 1 de janeiro de 1923, como a maioria das outras companhias, mas foi adiada para 1 de julho de 1923 (junto com a North Staffordshire Railway).
