History
A station at West Leederville was not part of the original Eastern Railway between Fremantle and Guildford when it opened on 1 March 1881. A realigned track through the new Leederville Cutting between West Leederville and West Perth station was opened for traffic on 9 June 1897, and on 12 July the station was opened as Leederville. The station was renamed West Leederville on 1 February 1913 to reflect the name of the local area.[1][2][3][4]
The station closed on 1 September 1979 along with the rest of the Fremantle line, re-opening on 29 July 1983 when services were restored.[5] In 2005, the platforms were extended to accommodate six carriage trains used on match days at Subiaco Oval. In 2007, a third platform was added on a stabling siding to the west of the existing platforms.[6]
