Warnbro Station is a Transperth train and bus interchange located in the far southern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. Served by the Mandurah line, with services running to both Mandurah and Perth, it is the southernmost station in Perth's metropolitan area.

History

Warnbro station was part of the New MetroRail Southern Suburbs Railway project. The construction of the station was completed on 7 May 2007 and control was handed over to the Public Transport Authority the same day. The station was opened on 23 December 2007. It is known for having an insufficient car parking space and many people have to travel to other stations such as Rockingham to get a car park.

Service

Warnbro is on the Mandurah Line of the Transperth Trains network, a hybrid metro-commuter rail system with five lines in metropolitan Perth. As such, it receives trains northbound to central Perth and southbound to the suburb of Mandurah. Two stopping patterns serve Warnbro station: all stations and C.[1]

In the inbound direction, all stations trains take about 38 minutes, averaging 75.1 km/h (46.7 mph), to arrive at Perth.[1] C-pattern trains stop at all stations except Canning Bridge heading to Perth, taking 35 minutes at an average of 81.6 km/h (50.7 mph).[1]

In the outbound direction, an all stations train takes about 14 minutes, averaging 96.4 km/h (59.9 mph), to arrive at Mandurah.[1] C-pattern trains operate locally to Mandurah apart from skipping Canning Bridge; this has no effect for passengers departing Warnbro for any southbound stations.[1]
