City West railway station is a railway station on the Transperth network. It is located on the Fremantle line, 1.6 kilometres from Perth station serving the suburb of West Perth.

The original West Perth station opened in 1883 as North Perth. It was renamed West Perth in 1890. The station closed on 1 September 1979 along with the rest of the Fremantle line, re-opening on 29 July 1983 when services were restored. It is now a major transport option for students of the nearby widely renowned Perth Modern School.

On 18 June 1986, a new West Perth station opened on the other side of the West Perth Subway. It was renamed City West on 19 November 1987 in conjunction with the opening of an adjacent Parry Corporation commercial development of the same name.

City West station is served by Transperth Fremantle line services from Fremantle to Perth that continue through to Midland via the Midland line.
