Grand-Moulin (pronounced [ɡʁɑ̃mulɛ̃]) is a Réseau express métropolitain (REM) station that opened on 17 November 2025. It is located in Deux-Montagnes, Quebec, Canada.[9]
The station replaced a commuter rail station by the same name, operated by Exo on the Deux-Montagnes line. The commuter train station was closed to make way for REM construction in May 2020.
History
The station opened in 1925 as Saint-Eustache-sur-le-Lac, and was renamed Deux-Montagnes in 1962.[10] In 1995, the Deux-Montagnes line was extended by one station; the new terminus, located on Boulevard Deux-Montagnes, took over the name Deux-Montagnes station, and the previous Deux-Montagnes station was renamed for nearby Chemin du Grand-Moulin.
The name derives from the presence of a grain mill, built in 1862, which was known as the grand moulin in contrast to the existing petit moulin in Saint-Eustache, which was part of the same seigneury. The mill also gave its name to the nearby Rapides du Grand-Moulin on the Rivière des Mille-Îles.[11]
