The Chomutov–Reitzenhain railway and its branch to Vejprty is a branch line (Czech: regionální dráha)[1] in the Czech Republic, that was originally built and operated by the Buschtěhrad Railway Company (BEB). It begins in Chomutov (Komotau), crosses the Ore Mountains, and ends today in the border station of Vejprty (Weipert), where there is a connexion to the German railway network over the Vejprty–Annaberg-Buchholz railway. The branch from Křimov to Reitzenhain has been closed since 1972.
