Ellenbrook Transfer Station was a Transperth bus station located on the corner of Lord Street and Gnangara Road, in Henley Brook, just south of Ellenbrook.[1] It had 3 stands and was served by 7 Transperth routes operated by Swan Transit.

The transfer station opened in 2006, initially providing bus services to Ellenbrook, Midland, Bassendean, and Morley.[2] In August 2017, bus route 355 was introduced, which travelled to the west of Whiteman to provide a more direct route to the north-western suburbs and to connect to the Joondalup Line, halving the previous travel time.[3]

The transfer station ceased operation on 2 November 2019, being replaced by Henley Brook Bus Station the next day.[4][1]
