Cannington Station is a railway station serving the suburb of Cannington south of Perth, Western Australia. It is located 12.2 kilometres (7.6 mi) from Perth Station on the Armadale/Thornlie Line, part of the Transperth network.

History[]

The original Cannington station was located between Station Street and Crawford Road in East Cannington, and was one of the original stations operational when the Armadale Line opened in 1889.[1] As part of the electrification of the line in the early 1990s, the original Cannington station was replaced by a new station 500 metres (1,600 ft) to the north-west.[2][3]

Future[]

As part of a Metronet project for several level crossing removals on the Armadale line, Cannington Station will be rebuilt as a new elevated station with island platforms, and a larger, 16 stand bus interchange underneath the station platforms. The new platforms will be the length of a six car train, as opposed to the current platforms which are the length of a four car train. The station platforms will be accessed by lift and stairs, with provisions for escalators and fare gates to be added in the future.[4]

Services[]

Cannington station is served by Transperth Train Operations Armadale/Thornlie Line services.[5]
