Cottesloe is a Transperth railway station 12.4km from Perth railway station in Western Australia on the Fremantle Line. Cottesloe station was established in 1890.

Station location

Cottesloe station is located on the eastern edge of Cottesloe near the boundary with Peppermint Grove. The tracks lie between Curtin Avenue and Railway Street, two important roads in the area. There are two access points from each of these roads: At the southern end of the platform a pedestrian bridge provides access by stairs to the platform; those on the northern end of the platform require crossing the tracks at grade level to reach the platform. ^[1]

Platforms

Apart from B-pattern trains, all trains service Cottesloe station. During peak periods trains operate every twenty minutes in each direction. Trains run every 15 minutes during daylight off-peak hours, and every 30 minutes in the evenings till midnight. ^[2] Between 5am and 6pm all Perth-bound trains from Cottesloe, except one, are Midland Line through-services terminating at Midland station.^[2]

There is a disused third platform, the original southbound platform. During electrification of the line, the original northbound platform became southbound and the goods platform was converted to northbound services. The goods line originally headed north to service the local Aero flour mill. A graded grass corridor still marks the site of the track. There was also a manned signal cabin at this station.
