East Guildford Railway Station is a Transperth railway station 14 km from Perth railway station, in Western Australia, on the Midland Line.
History
The station opened on 13 July 1896 as Woodbridge and served the Royal Agricultural Society's Woodbridge Showgrounds. It was renamed East Guildford on 1 April 1908. Since the change was at the request of the Guildford Municipal Council, the council was charged £35 5s 6d for the cost of changing the name on tickets and station signboards. The station was remodelled in the late 1960s.[1][2][3]
