Service
Kwinana is on the Mandurah Line of the Transperth Trains network, a hybrid metro-commuter rail system with five 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 Kwinana station: all stations, C, and K (only towards Perth).
In the inbound direction, all stations and K-pattern take about 31 minutes, averaging 63.1 km/h (39.2 mph), to arrive at Perth. C-pattern trains stop at all stations except Canning Bridge heading to Perth, taking 26 minutes at an average of 75.9 km/h (47.2 mph).
In the outbound direction, an all stations train takes about 25 minutes, averaging 89.3 km/h (55.5 mph), to arrive at Mandurah. C-pattern trains operate locally to Mandurah apart from skipping Canning Bridge; this has no effect for passengers departing Kwinana for any southbound stations. K-pattern trains do not stop at Kwinana on their way to Rockingham.

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“We too are ashes as we watch and hear
The psalm, the sorrow, and the simple praise
Of one whose promised thoughts of other days
Were such as ours, but now wholly destroyed,
The service record of his youth wiped out,
His dream dispersed by shot, must disappear.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
“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)
“The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
