Val d'Europe is a railway station on RER train network. It is located in Val d'Europe district of Marne-la-Vallée.

Réseau Express Régional Île-de-France regional express network

The Réseau Express Régional, commonly abbreviated RER, is a hybrid suburban commuter/rapid transit system serving Paris, France and its suburbs. The RER combines the operations and roles of a local city-centre underground rail system and suburbs-to-city-center commuter rail. Inside the city center, the RER functions much like the Métro, but is faster as it has fewer stops. This has made it a model for proposals to improve transit within other cities. The network consists of five lines: A, B, C, D and E. The network has 257 stations and has several connections with the Paris Métro within the city of Paris. The lines are identified by letters to avoid confusion with the Métro lines, which are identified by numbers. The RER is still expanding: Line E, which opened in 1999, is planned for westward extension in two phases by 2020–2022.

Val d'Europe is the westmost part of the new town of Marne-la-Vallée, located around 35 km to the east of Paris, France. It was built in conjunction with The Walt Disney Company, who wished to create a town near the Disneyland Paris resort. The final area of the district is currently in development.
