Osthannoversche Eisenbahnen
 | This article needs to be updated. The reason given is: Severely out of date regarding current operations. OHE has barely any own freight operations any more; Havelländische Eisenbahn serves many of the former OHE customers since 2016. OHE's infrastructure – except for the workshops – was handed over to a state-owned company called Schieneninfrastruktur Ost-Niedersachsen in early 2022. Passenger operations (on DB Netz lines) have been significantly extended in recent years through subsidiaries metronom and erixx . (January 2023) |

The Osthannoversche Eisenbahnen AG[3] (OHE) is a Celle based transportation company with railway network in North-eastern Lower Saxony around the Lüneburg Heath area of over 250 km.
The OHE's main business is the transportation of freight through their own routes as well as the network of the Deutsche Bahn.
Historically the company also operated passenger trains, which completely ended in 1977 after previous partial closures. After the de-monopolisation of the German railways in the 1990s the company re-entered the rail passenger market through the company NiedersachsenBahn which has a large stake in the company metronom
In March 2007 the OHE became majority owned by Arriva Deutschland.
