Hellingly Hospital Railway var en letbane ejet og drevet af East Sussex County Council, brugt til at transportere kul og passagerer til Hellingly Hospital, et psykiatrisk hospital nær Hailsham, fra London, Brighton and South Coast Railway's Cuckoo Line ved Hellingly station.
Jernbanen blev bygget i 1899 og åbnet for passagerer den 20. juli 1903, efter dens elektrificering i 1902. Efter jernbanesammenslutningen i 1923 faldt passagertallet så markant, at hospitalsmyndighederne ikke længere betragtede passagerbrug af linjen som økonomisk, og den service blev indstillet. Jernbanen lukkede for godstransport i 1959, efter hospitalets beslutning om at konvertere sine kulkedler til olie, hvilket gjorde jernbanen unødvendig.
