The Marconi Railway was a 1+1⁄2 miles long narrow gauge railway with a gauge of 2 feet at the Marconi Wireless Station near Clifden in the Irish County Galway.
The route ran from the gate of the site over bog and rocks to the main buildings of the Marconi Wireless Station. There was a turntable at each end of the track, of which ruins are still visible. There were no passing loops on the single line track. Several manually operated cranes along the route could be used to load peat onto the waggons, which was used as fuel for the on-site power station.
