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:
“A man’s real faith is never contained in his creed, nor is his creed an article of his faith. The last is never adopted. This it is that permits him to smile ever, and to live even as bravely as he does. And yet he clings anxiously to his creed, as to a straw, thinking that that does him good service because his sheet anchor does not drag.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“His character as one of the fathers of the English language would alone make his works important, even those which have little poetical merit. He was as simple as Wordsworth in preferring his homely but vigorous Saxon tongue, when it was neglected by the court, and had not yet attained to the dignity of a literature, and rendered a similar service to his country to that which Dante rendered to Italy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We could not help being struck by the seeming, though innocent, indifference of Nature to these men’s necessities, while elsewhere she was equally serving others. Like a true benefactress, the secret of her service is unchangeableness. Thus is the busiest merchant, though within sight of his Lowell, put to pilgrim’s shifts, and soon comes to staff and scrip and scallop-shell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
