{{nihongo|'''Nankai Electric Railway Co., Ltd.'''|南海電気鉄道株式会社|Nankai denki tetsudō kabushiki gaisha}} is a [[private railway]] in Japan, founded in 1884. The name ''Nankai'' (which means "South Sea") comes from the company's routes along the [[Nankaidō]], the old highway that ran south from the old capital, Kyoto, along the sea coast. Nankai predates all the electric railways in the Tokyo region.

The Nankai network branches out in a generally southern direction from [[Namba Station]] in [[Osaka]]. The Nankai Main Line connects Osaka to [[Wakayama, Wakayama|Wakayama]], with an [[Nankai Airport Line|important spur]] branching to [[Kansai International Airport]]. The ''[[rapi:t]] α'' express connects [[Kansai International Airport]] to Namba in 34 minutes, while the ''[[rapi:t]] β'' takes 39 minutes with two additional stops. The Koya Line connects Osaka to [[Mt. Koya]], headquarters of the Buddhist [[Shingon]] sect and a popular pilgrimage site. IC cards ([[PiTaPa]] and [[ICOCA]]) are accepted.

== History ==
[[File:Nankai Railway logomark.svg|thumb|150px|[[Winged wheel]] and first ''[[mon (emblem)|monshō]]'' of the Nankai Railway Company, reused by the Nankai Electric Railway until 1973.]]

The Nankai Railway Company was founded on June 16, 1884. In 1944 it was one of the companies that merged to form [[Kintetsu Railway|Kinki Nippon Railway Co., Ltd. (Kin-nichi, present Kintetsu Railway)]]. However, Kin-nichi transferred the former Nankai Railway Company's lines to the present Nankai Electric Railway Co., Ltd. (named Koyasan Electric Railway Co., Ltd. from March 28, 1925 until March 14, 1947) on June 1, 1947.

[[File:Nankai corporate mark old.svg|thumb|150px|''[[Mon (emblem)|Monshō]]'' of the Nankai Electric Railway since 1972; used as main logo until 1993.]]

From 1938 to 1988, Nankai Electric Railway owned the [[Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks|Nankai Hawks]], a team in [[Nippon Professional Baseball]] that was based in Osaka. The team was sold to [[Daiei]] after the 1988 season and moved to Fukuoka and rechristened the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks. The team was sold again in 2005 to [[SoftBank]], and are now the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks.
