Bry-sur-Marne: station history
Served by: RER A.
Did you know?
A RER A station on branch A4 towards Marne-la-Vallée - Chessy, between Neuilly-Plaisance and Noisy-le-Grand - Mont d'Est, at kilometre point 37.95. Put into service on 9 December 1977 by the RATP, it was opened to support the development of the new town of Marne-la-Vallée and to serve Bry-sur-Marne. It has a single exit, accessible to people with reduced mobility, and two lifts serve the platforms; they were put into service in March-April 2007, after works begun in November 2005.
Anecdote
The station is off-centre. Paradoxically, it is better served just before and just after the rush hour than during it, especially in the evening. Since 16 December 2013, off-peak service has been six trains an hour, alternating stopping trains to Torcy and semi-fast trains to Marne-la-Vallée - Chessy. The neighbouring SNCF station, built in the 1930s, now serves only freight, and the RER tracks pass under those of the Bobigny to Sucy - Bonneuil line.
