East Perth Train Station is a Transperth train station 1.9km apart from Perth Train Station, on the Midland Line. It is next to the East Perth Passenger Terminal and the Transwa Public Transport Centre, in Western Australia.
[edit] Inside The Terminal
The interior of the terminal is very modern and complete with artwork to reflect the past, present and future of the Perth train system. The public area includes a newsagent, help desks, vending machines (soft drinks, coffee and crisps, and lollies) padded seats, televisions, information screens and toilets. The building was formerly the base of Westrail's workers, and after the closure of Westrail, Australian Railroad Group were based there for 2 years, from 2000 to 2002. In 2002 ARG relocated to Welshpool, and as such the terminal is now the base for the Public Transport Authority.
