It linked Armadale to Fremantle via Forrestdale and Jandakot by 1907.
It was constructed in response to the need to transport agricultural goods in the Armadale and Forrestdale areas to the port of Fremantle. The railway was closed as a result of a line linking Jarrahdale to Kwinana and was replaced by Armadale Road.
