(Edgewater Station, 16th of September, 2002)
Built : Opened, March 1993
Original Name : Edgewater
Station History : Edgewater Station is one of the original Stations of the Joondalup line and is situated between Whitfords and Joondalup Stations.
Edgewater Station is part of a new breed of Railway Stations in Western Australia, because before the Joondalup line opened in March 93, there had been
no expansion of the suburban passenger service with new railway lines in 100 years, pretty much (for 100 years, the Perth suburban railway network mainly
consisted of the Midland Line, Fremantle Line and Armadale line, also with outer suburban services to places like Chidlow and Kalamunda), so this new line
brought new stations and provided a top notch public transport option to people living in the northern suburbs of Perth. Apart from all this gerneral information,
there isn't too much history with these new stations along the Joondalup line and the same will go for the new Mandurah line Stations.
A short description of Edgewater Station : Edgewater is a far modest Station compared to the others along the Joondalup line, Edgewater, doesn't have a
giant hanger roof over it, or sound protection for passengers on the platform from the freeway on either side of the tracks, or esculators providing access to
the platfoim from overpasses crossing the freeway to bus interchanges, all this you would find on the other Joondalup Line Stations (except Currambine).
