The Nishikigawa Seiryu Line (錦川清流線) is a 32.7 km railway line in Iwakuni, Yamaguchi Prefecture.  It runs between Kawanishi Station and Nishikicho Station and is operated by Nishikigawa Tetsudou Co., Ltd.

The company took over operations in 1987 from JR West, which previously managed the line.  At Kawanishi Station, the line connects to JR West's Gantoku Line, providing access all the way to Iwakuni Station.

The line follows National Route 187 and the Nishiki River, from which it gets its name.  The train slows down at a few spots along the line to allow passengers to enjoy the scenery:
