Kewdale Freight Terminal is a large intermodal rail facility in the Perth suburb of Kewdale. Branching off the Kwinana railway line, it was built in the 1960s to replace the Perth Marshalling Yard. It initially comprised ten narrow gauge (1,067 mm or 3 ft 6.0 in) and seven standard gauge (1,435 mm or 4 ft 8.5 in) arrival roads.

The first narrow gauge sidings opened in early 1967; the first standard gauge sidings in November 1968.
