On 11 March 1884, the Eastern Railway first route opened from Guildford to Chidlow via Greenmount and Sawyers Valley.

[4][5][6] Bellevue station was built in the late 1890s on the site of 24 Mile Siding, 2.1 kilometres east of Midland Junction with an island platform.

[4][10] The 17 kilometre section of the first route between Mountain Quarry and Mount Helena closed on 24 January 1954, with the final 4.3 kilometre section from Mountain Quarry closed on 31 December 1965.

[2][3][4] Bellevue was for considerable periods of its history the terminus of metropolitan passenger services from Perth.

[10][11] As part of the Metronet project, it is proposed to extend Transperth's Midland line services to Bellevue which will require a new station to be built.
