The Hershey Electric Railway, also known as the Hershey Railway, is a standard-gauge electric interurban railway that runs from Casablanca, Havana, to the city of Matanzas, approximately 92 kilometres (57 mi) to the east. There are a number of intermediate halts and a station and depot at the town of Camilo Cienfuegos, better known by its pre-revolutionary name of Hershey. The railway is the only surviving electric line in Cuba. The railway was built by The Hershey Company to transport sugar to the port of Havana. The original electric interurban cars were bought from the JG Brill Company, but these were replaced by 60-year old cars from the Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya in the 1990s.

Benannt ist sie nach Central Hershey, einer ehemals von der Hershey Chocolate Corporation of Pennsylvania betriebenen Zuckermühle mit angeschlossener Arbeitersiedlung. Sie ist eine der wenigen erhaltenen Interurbans in Amerika. (de)
