Bikes On Trains

You cannot take bikes on trains TO PERTH at morning peak (7-9) or FROM PERTH at afternoon peak ( 4:30 – 6:30 ), or at or through Perth station at either of these times. Because ECU Joondalup is not in the direction of peak hour traffic, it means that bikes on trains is a very practical option!
