Ramal da Figueira da Foz, also known as Ramal de Pampilhosa, and originally as Linha da Beira Alta, together with the section from Pampilhosa to Vilar Formoso, is a closed railway line in Portugal. It connected the stations of Figueira da Foz (which is also the terminus of the Linha do Oeste) to the station of Pampilhosa, at the junction of Linha do Norte and Linha da Beira Alta, with a total length 50.4 km. It was opened on 3 August 1882, and closed on 5 January 2009, for safety reasons.
