Le Mée-sur-Seine: station history

Served by: RER D.

Did you know?

A station in Seine-et-Marne on the Paris-Lyon to Marseille line, between Cesson and Melun, served by branch D2 of RER D. A station first stood in the Vieux-Mée (PK 42.328). The current station, at Les Courtilleraies, replaced it after a decision made in 1975. It is in an open cutting, with two footbridges and a free car park of 300 to 500 spaces.

Anecdote

A station at Le Mée was already considered when the line opened, in 1849. After the Le Mée bridge was destroyed in the Second World War, a provisional halt served Melun in 1944-1945. Since 1999, local officials have asked for direct Transilien trains between Melun and Gare de Lyon to stop at Le Mée, with no agreement so far.
