Close

The station was put into service on 9 February 1857 by the Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Est, when the section from Nogent–Le Perreux to Nangis opened. It is a SNCF station served by RER E trains.

The station is situated at kilometric point 38.321 of Paris-Est–Mulhouse-Ville railway, between Ozoir-la-Ferrière and Verneuil-l'Étang. Its altitude is 109 m.

The East company puts in operation Émerainville station at the opening of the section from Nogent–Le Perreux to Nangis to commercial service. That section opens with only one track, the second is put into service on 23 April 1857.^[2]

In 2000,^[3] a contract between the State and the Île-de-France region organised the expansion of RER E from Villiers-sur-Marne to Tournan. On 14 February 2002, the STIF board of directors approves of the pilot. On 14 December 2003, the line is cut from its historical network to Paris-Est, and linked with RER E leading to Haussmann–Saint-Lazare. That integration modify journeys and timetables; it improves the station services. Platforms are raised from 0.55 metres (1.80 ft) to 0.92 metres (3.02 ft) to facilitate access to the carriages. Facilities improve accessibility to people with limited mobility. Screens on the platforms show real time information.

SNCF estimates 907,200 people frequented the station in 2014.^[4]
