The Bellingham Subdivision or Bellingham Sub is a railway line running about 119 miles^[5] (191 km) from Everett, Washington to Blaine, Washington. It is operated by BNSF Railway.

Traveling north from PA Jct. in Everett, the main line of the BNSF heads north through Delta Yard and Delta Jct The line crosses the Snohomish River and across 4 bridges 3 that are movable for boat traffic. The line passes through the city of Marysville and by Kruse Jct. which leads to Arlington 6.9 miles (11.1 km) away.

The main line then continues north to the siding at English and the first Amtrak Cascades stop north of Everett at the city of Stanwood. The line continues into the Skagit Valley and passing Conway and to the next station for Amtrak Cascades at Mount Vernon.
