Vaudreuil station is a
commuter rail station operated by
Exo in
Vaudreuil-Dorion, Quebec, Canada. It is served by the
Vaudreuil–Hudson line.
on weekdays, 10 of 11 inbound trains originate at this station, and 11 of 12 outbound trains on the line terminate here, the exception being one
short-turned train in each direction terminating or originating at
Beaconsfield station. On weekends, all trains (four on Saturday and three on Sunday in each direction) originate or terminate here.
The station is a recent addition to the line, built in 2003.
It is located near the interchange of
Autoroute 40 and

followed its construction. The station was originally built as a single-track, single-platform station.
