In one exemplary embodiment, an epicyclic gear train for a turbine engine includes a first shaft that is rotatable about an axis. A ring gear includes first and second portions each having an inner periphery with teeth. The first and second portions are secured to one another at a radial interface. At least one of the first and second portions includes a flange that extends radially outward. The flange is fixed to the first shaft in an axial direction by a fastening element. A carrier supports star gears that mesh with the ring gear. A sun gear meshes with the star gears and is coupled to a second shaft.
