Whiteman Park railway station is an unopened suburban railway station on the Ellenbrook line in Perth, Western Australia. The station is located on the western side of Drumpellier Drive in Whiteman, and will serve the surrounding suburbs of Brabham, Dayton, Henley Brook and West Swan, as well as the nature reserve and tourism destination of Whiteman Park.
Whiteman Park station consists of an island platform located on a viaduct. The contract for the construction of the Ellenbrook line was awarded to Laing O'Rourke in October 2020 and construction began in 2022. Throughout 2023, viaduct bridge beams were being installed, and during 2024, cladding and fit out occurred. The station reached completion in August 2024 and is planned to open alongside the rest of the Ellenbrook line on 8 December 2024.
There are planned to be five trains per hour stopping at Whiteman Park station during peak, reducing to four trains per hour outside peak. A journey to Perth station is expected to take 25 minutes. Feeder bus routes will serve the surrounding area, and a heritage tramway operated by the Perth Electric Tramway Society will run from the station into the core of Whiteman Park.
