The Negishi Line (Japanese: 根岸線, romanized: Negishi-sen) is a Japanese railway line which connects Yokohama and Ōfuna stations. It is operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East). Freight trains also operate on this line, and it is essential for the southern Keihin region.
The Negishi Line does not exist as an independent service. All trains operate a through service onto the Keihin-Tōhoku Line past Yokohama to Kamata, Tokyo, Minami-Urawa and Ōmiya. As a result, the entire service between Ōmiya and Ōfuna is typically referred to as the Keihin-Tōhoku—Negishi Line (Japanese: 京浜東北線・根岸線) on system maps and in-train station guides. Keihin-Tōhoku Line—Negishi Line trains are recognizable by their light blue stripe (the line's color on maps is also light blue).
Some Yokohama Line trains to/from Hachiōji or Hashimoto travel onto the Negishi line and terminate/originate at Sakuragicho, with a small number of AM & PM Peak services continuing to/from Isogo or Ofuna.
