A station in Seine-et-Marne opened in 1861 by the Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Est, now belonging to the SNCF and served by Transilien line P. Despite its name, it lies in the territory of La Houssaye-en-Brie, north of Marles-en-Brie. It stands 112 metres above sea level, at kilometre point 49.048 of the Gretz-Armainvilliers to Sézanne line, between Tournan and Mortcerf.
Anecdote
In 2019 a new park-and-ride opened, bringing the number of parking spaces to 502. The station is served by several bus lines. The Paris-Bastille to Marles-en-Brie line, the "ligne de Vincennes", received a concession in 1893 for an extension to Marles-en-Brie, on the Gretz-Armainvilliers to Sézanne line; the section beyond Verneuil-l'Étang was closed to passengers as early as the 1930s.
