The S3 is a commuter rail route forming part of the Milan suburban railway service (Italian: Servizio ferroviario suburbano di Milano), which converges on the city of Milan, Italy.
The route runs over the infrastructure of the Milan–Saronno railway, the oldest line owned by the Ferrovie Nord Milano. Like all but one of the other Milan suburban railway service routes, it is operated by Trenord.
Line S3, a radial route, runs from Saronno in a south easterly direction, via the Milan–Saronno railway, to Milano Cadorna, the railway's urban terminus.
The S3 was activated on 12 December 2004.
