Clamart: station history
Served by: Transilien N.
Did you know?
A Transilien line N station, at kilometre point 5.147 of the Paris-Montparnasse to Brest line, between Vanves - Malakoff and Meudon, at an altitude of 77 metres. It was put into service with the opening of the track between Paris-Montparnasse and Versailles-Rive-Gauche. In 1904, the Parisian architect A. Raguenet built a larger building on the other side of the tracks, with « astonishing and original » forms; demolished around the mid-20th century, it was replaced by a more modern station. The station has a central platform, two side platforms and four tracks.
Anecdote
In 2015, the closure of the place de la Gare, linked to its redevelopment, disrupted pedestrian traffic: access is now by a long footbridge linking the station building to the central platform. An underground station for line 15 of the Grand Paris Express is planned under the tracks and the car park, with platforms at −26 m, connecting with line N. An extension of tram T10 is envisaged, with an underground station at the station, for 2032.
