When you leave the terminal, go over the footbridge, turn right at the end, takes you to the train terminal. Can't miss it. There's only one train station. Good idea to go after 9.00am if it is a weekday, due to "rush hour". Train takes you to Perth train station. Plenty of taxi's and information booth at Perth train station. Takes about 25 - 30 mins Edited May 9, 2015 by dizzy1948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuldalai Posted May 10, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Yes frequent suburban electric trains from Fremantle up to Perth city. Freo station is right beside the cruise terminal. Access to station either by footbridge at City end of station, or grou d pedestrian crossing at e d of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, Kuldalai - you're right, it would be easier to walk down Peter Hughes drive and cross at the train crossing, rather than go over the bridge. That bridge is a killer for some. :eek: Nice that they have done that pathway through. So..........cruisefan2012 - turn right when you leave the port - just at the bridge entrance, don't cross the bridge, and leisurely stroll down to the train station. Sorry about that. (Unless of course you want to cross the bridge - which goes over the railway line.) You will see the train crossing, at the station on your left walking down, can't miss it.

cruisefan2012 Posted May 10, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Thanks both :) Fremantle train station to Perth City Centre train station? Any idea how much it will cost? Also whats the best way to get from Perth City Centre to Perth Airport a few days later ? Is there also a train from city to the airport or a bus?

I`m not a train spotter I just find trains go quicker then buses and tend to be generally easier Train fare would be no more than $6.00 each (will check when I come home from work) I believe there is a shuttle bus from Perth City to the International Airport - and no trains. :( Or you can get a taxi - for around $30.00 - not too sure. Will check for you later. Yep the train station is right in Perth. Not a big station like you guys would be used to :D More Thomas the Tank :p Edited May 10, 2015 by dizzy1948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
