Loch Street Train Station is a Transperth train station 8 km from Perth Train Station, in Western Australia, on the Fremantle Line.

Loch Street since 2002 has had its regular services limited due to low passenger numbers, distance from Karrakatta station and, prior to May 2009, the length of its platforms. The length of the platform wasn't long enough to accommodate four car train sets, resulting in certain trains skipping the station. Only the two car train sets stopped at weekends, at a frequency of one train per hour. However, in 2009, works commenced to extend the platforms, concluding in May.[1] Train services have since been restored to 4 trains per hour at weekends, however, some early and late train services still skip the station.
