旅遊或觀光鐵路以及遺產鐵路，顧名思義就是提供旅遊或文化資產保存為主的鐵路，相對於飛機旅行鐵路更可以讓人飽覽沿途的湖光山色的沿途風光，也可以緬懷當年開拓這條鐵路的目的或用途。此類鐵路在以往也是做為商業運行的線路，但後來因運量不足或不再需要(如改線或者有其他運輸工具取代，或因為資源開發殆盡而被迫轉型)而停運，後被志願者、政府或非營利組織接管而重啟營運。這類鐵路大多不再承擔商業運輸，通常只是季節性運行，少部份則是每週或每天運行，觀光鐵路多數收取高票價。遺產鐵路的列車作通常是老式蒸汽機車或原始鐵道機車，但也有一些柴油和電力牽引火車。
而世界最著名的旅遊鐵路路線莫過於發源於歐洲的東方快車號，其路線也隨著歷史有所不同，後來也衍生出小說與電影著作，甚至更進一步在亞洲也開啟了東方快車的路線。
下列是世界著名的旅遊與遺產鐵路路線。
