Midland Train Station is a Transperth train station 16km from Perth Train Station, in Western Australia, and is the terminus of the current suburban rail service on the Midland Line. It was opened on 8 October 1968.[1]

For information about, and history of the earlier railway station in Midland see - Midland Junction railway station

The Midland train station, like the greater Midland area, suffers from a relatively high level of crime.[citation needed] This has led to the introduction of a fenced and locked car parking area in an effort to reduce motor vehicle theft.
