[6] It was formerly a commuter rail station on the Deux-Montagnes line until Exo ended service in 2020.

Bois Franc was also the original name of the nearby pioneer airstrip that later was known as Cartierville Airport, until its closing in the 1980s.

The station is located at 5465 Henri Bourassa Boulevard West, between Marcel-Laurin Boulevard/Boulevard Laurentien (Route 117) and Grenet Street in Saint-Laurent on the border with Cartierville.

When the line was run by Canadian National, only one rush-hour trip was scheduled in each direction.

It was abandoned in the early 1980s when STM predecessor STCUM took over operations of the Deux-Montagnes line.
