The 1988 Station
In 1988, the RER C, a new suburban railway line opened. Champs de Mars became a stop on the line serving the Eiffel Tower and the connection stop for trains from Pontoise and Versailles.
The station is currently covered, situated below the Quai Branly but many features from the original station remain such as the platform walls.
The current station has two side platforms serving 2 out of 3 tracks.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“...I believe it is now the duty of the slaves of the South to rebuke their masters for their robbery, oppression and crime.... No station or character can destroy individual responsibility, in the matter of reproving sin.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
