Service
Murdoch is on the Mandurah Line of the Transperth Trains network, a hybrid metro-commuter rail system with six lines in metropolitan Perth. As such, it receives trains northbound to central Perth and southbound to Mandurah and Rockingham. Four stopping patterns serve Murdoch station: all stations, C, K, and W. In effect, Murdoch is served by all trains on the Mandurah Line.
In the inbound direction, all stations, K-, and W-pattern trains take about 15 minutes, averaging 55.2 km/h (34.3 mph), to arrive at Perth. C-pattern trains stop at all stations except Canning Bridge heading to Perth, taking 14 minutes at an average of 59.1 km/h (36.7 mph).
In the outbound direction, an all stations train takes about 32 minutes, averaging 105.6 km/h (65.6 mph), to arrive at Mandurah. C-pattern trains operate locally to Mandurah apart from skipping Canning Bridge; this has no effect for passengers departing Murdoch for any southbound stations. K-pattern trains operate locally to Cockburn Central and then run express to Rockingham, taking 19 minutes to do so at an average of 92.8 km/h (57.7 mph). W-pattern trains stop at all stations and terminate at Cockburn Central, taking 12 minutes averaging 80.4 km/h (50.0 mph).
