The Fallowfield Loop railway line was a local railway route in Manchester, England.
Trains on the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway （MS&LR） line （later, the Great Central Railway line） from Sheffield Victoria and Guide Bridge used the Loop to access Manchester Central railway station.
Some express trains including the Harwich-Sheffield-Manchester-Liverpool boat train used the line.
The line was fully opened in 1892 and remained in use until 1988, the stations at Hyde Road, Levenshulme South, Fallowfield and Wilbraham Road having closed in 1958 following the withdrawal of passenger services.
Reddish Depot was built adjacent to the line in 1954, to maintain the new fleet of electric trains for the Woodhead Line, and remained open until 1983.

The following year, the remaining section between Fallowfield and Fairfield opened on 2 May 1892.
The line provided a new route for the MS&LR to run trains from Sheffield into Manchester and local stopping services ran from Fairfield and Gorton on the Hope Valley line to Manchester Central via Hyde Road,
Fallowfield and Chorlton-cum-Hardy before joining a section of line from Old Trafford into Manchester Central.
In 1897, the MS&LR became the Great Central Railway and in 1923 the line was absorbed into the London and North Eastern Railway （LNER）.
