Le Lussex railway station (French: Halte de Le Lussex) is a former railway station in the municipality of Jouxtens-Mézery, in the Swiss canton of Vaud. It is located on the 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) Lausanne–Bercher line of the Chemin de fer Lausanne-Échallens-Bercher [fr] (LEB).[1] The stop was eliminated with the 13 December 2020 timetable change in order to improve timekeeping over the line. The closure is unpopular with the local community, as the next stop north at Romanel-sur-Lausanne is in different fare zone and has higher ticket prices for the commute to Lausanne.[3]
