Lathlain railway station
Lathlain railway station was a suburban railway station on the Transperth network in Western Australia. It was on the Armadale line in the Perth suburbs of Lathlain and Victoria Park. The station opened on 2 May 1958 to serve Lathlain Park, the home ground of the Perth Football Club. The station closed on 2 February 2003 due to low patronage, its close distance to the adjacent Carlisle and Victoria Park stations, and the need to lower the railway line to build the Miller Street/Roberts Road bridge.
