Service
Canning Bridge 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 the suburbs of Mandurah and Rockingham. Three stopping patterns serve Canning Bridge station: all stations, K, and W. There is also a C-pattern train on the Mandurah Line but it skips Canning Bridge.
An all stations train takes between 43 and 46 minutes, averaging 85 km/h (53 mph), to arrive at Mandurah. K-pattern trains operate locally to Cockburn Central and then run express to Rockingham, taking 26 minutes to do so at an average of 82.8 km/h (51.4 mph). W-pattern trains stop at all stations and terminate at Cockburn Central, taking 12 minutes averaging 66 km/h (41 mph). All trains, regardless of their pattern, take nine minutes to arrive at Perth underground, averaging 49 km/h (30 mph).

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“The socialism of our day has done good service in setting men to thinking how certain civilizing benefits, now only enjoyed by the opulent, can be enjoyed by all.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The true courage of civilized nations is readiness for sacrifice in the service of the state, so that the individual counts as only one amongst many. The important thing here is not personal mettle but aligning oneself with the universal.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“You had to face your ends when young
‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
But never made a poorer song
That you might have a heavier purse,
Nor gave loud service to a cause
That you might have a troop of friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
