Newhaven Express is a former train service from Kings. It operated the railways within the state. The service was not part of the national rail system and only operated within Kings. There was however a national operating part of the railway company, called Newhaven Connect. The company also owned several express trains called after the company. The trains ran on the Kings State Line and on the District Line.

The service operated only within Kings, with trains within at least every 60 minutes. At Newhaven Main, it used two dedicated platforms (6 and 7). There were two stops at every other neighborhood in Newhaven, except in the Old Port where isn't any station. The trains also crossed the state of Kings into the inland and towards the coast.

The service used Class 332 electric multiple unit trains built by Siemens. The trains incorporated numerous modern features including video monitors and the ability to use mobile phones throughout the journey, even when in tunnels. The monitors were mostly used for advertising purposes and for the broadcast of news and weather updates produced for especially for Newhaven Express

Since its opening, Newhaven Express has been generally well received, not least because steps were taken to reduce the environmental impact of the train line. Measures included disguising ventilation shafts as barns. The service has received some criticism, however, mainly due to its cost and the lack of quiet zone on some trains. As of 2007, it cost around $2.50 for a single journey in standard class and around $3.50 for first class. The trains had no other classes besides those two.
