Torcy station (French pronunciation: [toʁsi]) is a railway station in Torcy, Seine-et-Marne, a suburb east of Paris.
History
[edit]Torcy opened on 19 December 1980 as part of an extension of the A4 branch from its previous eastern terminal of Noisy-le-Grand–Mont d'Est. It served as the eastern terminus of the A4 branch for twelve years until 1 April 1992, when the RER A4 was extended to Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy; since then, the A4 branch has yet to be extended.
Traffic
[edit]As of 2019[update], the estimated annual attendance by the RATP Group was 4,223,220 passengers.[2]
Service
[edit]Torcy is on the A4 branch of the RER A and receives frequent service. As of 4 February 2008, during peak hours there are between twelve and eighteen trains per hour (intervals of five and three minutes and twenty seconds), during mid-day trains arrive every ten minutes, and early mornings and late nights trains come at fifteen-minute intervals.[3][4]
The station acts as a terminus for certain trains. Trains that terminate at Torcy will display a headline beginning with O, O being the designation that a train terminates at Torcy rather than Q for Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy.[4]

[edit]The station is served by several buses:
RATP Bus network lines: 211 , 220 , 321 and 421 ;[5][6]- Pep's Bus network lines: 13, 21, 25, 29 and 46 ;[5][6]
