Tram route 19 is a public transport service in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It runs from Flinders Street in the city centre to North Coburg in the northern suburbs. It runs through the suburbs of Melbourne, Parkville, Brunswick, Coburg, and Coburg North. Like most tram routes in Melbourne, it is entirely within Metcard ticketing Zone 1.

As this tram route is one of the most patronised in Melbourne, the VicRoads Think>Tram initiative was instated along this route to help increase ontime running. Yellow dividers are now bolted along Sydney Road forming a tram lane which was previously shared by cars. The route is operated by B2 class trams.

This route also passes through one of the most diverse areas in Melbourne, with Lebanese, Greek, Italian and some Asian restaurants and shops along Sydney Road.
