The Woosung Road was the 1876 railway near Shanghai that Qing officials later purchased and dismantled. It ran between Shanghai and Woosung, now generally spelled Wusong, and is also called the Woosung Railway.
Built by British commercial interests, including Jardine, Matheson and Company, the narrow-gauge line opened commercially in July 1876. Construction had proceeded without formal approval from the Qing government, partly because the project had been presented as a road or tramway. The railway carried both passengers and freight along a route of roughly 15 kilometres.
The Qing authorities bought the line for 285,000 taels of silver and took possession in October 1877. Viceroy Shen Baozhen then ordered it dismantled; much of its equipment was sent toward Taiwan. It is often confused with the later Shanghai–Woosung, or Songhu, railway, which opened in 1898 along broadly the same corridor.
