Terrebonne station is a commuter rail station operated by Exo in Terrebonne, Quebec, Canada. It is served by the Mascouche line.
Despite its name, it is located some 9 km from the town centre of Terrebonne, instead serving the district of Lachenaie, a former municipality that was merged with Terrebonne in 2001.
The station is located on the median of Quebec Autoroute 640. It possesses a single track and a single side platform. The platform is a high-level platform, a feature shared only with Gare Centrale, Repentigny, and Mascouche stations on the commuter train network. The station has a single exit, reached via an enclosed overhead bridge passing over the eastbound autoroute lane to reach the main parking lot, with stair and elevator access. As a result, the station is wheelchair-accessible. The parking lot and adjacent bus loop are reached from Boulevard Marcel-Therrien.
An artwork by Patrick Coutu, an aluminum and stainless steel sculpture entitled Myriade, stands in the parking lot near the station entrance.

Repentigny station is a commuter rail station operated by Exo in Repentigny, Quebec, Canada, a suburb north of Montreal. It is served by the Mascouche line.
The station possesses a single side platform, although two tracks pass through it; the second is used by non-stopping freight traffic branching off on the Canadian National Joliette Subdivision. The platform is a high-level platform, a feature shared only with Central Station, Terrebonne, and Mascouche stations on the commuter train network.
The platform runs along Rue Ricard, underneath a viaduct carrying Quebec Autoroute 40. There are three exits. A short staircase exits from the south end of the platform onto Rue Ricard; a walkway passes from the north end of the platform under Boul. Pierre-Le Gardeur to a small parking lot on Place des Roseaux; and the main parking lot and bus loop are located on the east side of the tracks on Boulevard Lacombe.
The station features an enclosed overhead bridge passing over the tracks to the main parking lot, with stair and elevator access. As a result, the station is wheelchair-accessible. The east side of the structure features an artwork by Nicolas Baier, L'Arbre de la gare.

The Charles de Gaulle Bridge is a bridge that links the eastern tip of the island of Montreal, Quebec over the Rivière des Prairies to the Lanaudière region near the city of Charlemagne. The bridge is named after French President Charles de Gaulle, who inspired the Quebec sovereignty movement in the 1960s with his Vive le Québec libre speech in Montreal in 1967, the same year the bridge was built.
The bridge is part of Quebec Autoroute 40 and is only one of two bridge crossings from Montreal to the Repentigny-Charlemagne region, the other being Pierre Le Gardeur Bridge, on Notre-Dame Street. As being by far the fastest link to Downtown Montreal, the road is often very congested during rush hours, with traffic backing up as far as Repentigny in the morning with heavy congestion eastbound during the afternoon. The bridge is also part of the fastest travel link between Montreal and the cities of Trois-Rivières and Quebec City, both on the northern shores of the Saint Lawrence River.
The bridge has three lanes of traffic in each direction. The six-lane segment on A-40 eastbound continues until after the Quebec Autoroute 640 junction.

Charlemagne is a city in the Canadian province of Québec on the north shore of the Rivière des Prairies, 24 kilometres northeast of the city of Montréal’s downtown core. As of 2021, the population was 6,302.
Charlemagne is the birthplace and childhood hometown of singer Céline Dion, known for the song "My Heart Will Go On" from the 1997 film Titanic; the town council named one of its main streets after her without the recognition of a Québec commission. Additionally, the town erected a sculpture on Dion's behalf. Charlemagne is also the birthplace of politician Camille Laurin.
