The Compagnie du chemin de fer du Bas-Congo au Katanga, known as the BCK, was a railway operating company active in the Congo Free State, Belgian Congo, and later the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zaire. Most of its lines ran through southern Katanga Province, linking to the Kasai River for the transport of mineral exports down to Kinshasa and on to the port of Matadi, with a further connection into the Angolan railway network toward the port of Lobito.
