Vendôme is an AMT commuter rail station in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
The station is located in the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce area of the borough of Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce and is served by the Vaudreuil-Hudson, Saint-Jérôme and Candiac Lines.
The Vendôme AMT station is connected by a pedestrian tunnel to the Vendôme Montreal Metro station for interchange between AMT commuter trains and the Montreal Metro subway system.
The station originally had two tracks (and two side platforms), but in 2015, the AMT added a third track running between Montreal West and Downtown for improved service, and rebuilt platform 2 at Vendôme as an wider, island platform so trains running on the new track could call at the station as well. [3]
The station is in AMT's Fare Zone 1.[1]
Origin of the name
This station is named for av. de Vendôme, whose namesake is uncertain. It is probably named for one or more of the Dukes of Vendôme, several of whom were important in the history of France.
