H.O.W.A.R.A.S - Gosenlls Station

Gosnells Station

The new Gosnells Station, 21st of April 2005

Opened : 1905 (Orignal Station 1905 - 2005, Current Station 2005 - Present)

Original Name : Gosnells (1905 - present)

Station History : The island platform station of Gosnells, was built in 1905, how ever it is believed that the position along the line from Perth to Armadale where the old Gosnells station is, was used as a stopping place for passengers for many years before the station was built.

On the 17th of April 2005, the new Gosnells Station, situated a few hundred metres towards Perth on the Armadale Line officially opened, signalling the
end of use of the old wooden island platform, Gosnells station that had been in use since 1905. The new station is a very simular design to that of
Showgrounds and also shares some of the same design features of stations such as Maylands, Bassendean and Armadale.

I prefer this design of Station to that of the ones on the Northern Suburbs line, which may look nice now, but in the future, become outdated, compared to this
design which is safe and contemporary.
