History

When the Upper Darling Range railway opened in July 1891, Kalamunda was the only station on the line with raised platforms. It had two station buildings, a water tower and sidings for passing trains and for storing wagons. In 1926, a new station building was built.

The station closed on 22 July 1949, along with the rest of the line.^[2][3] The station has been redeveloped as the Kalamunda History Village.^[4]
