Aquebogue was a station stop along the Greenport Branch of the Long Island Rail Road in Aquebogue, New York.

History

Aquebogue first appeared on the June 1892 timetable.[1] Work began in March 1910 and was completed over the summer. An acre of land on the east was bought and filled in to provide a 1400-foot passing track. A new frame station was built in 1911 on the south side of the track opposite the new station.[2] A new depot was erected at Aquebogue in 1910, and was gutted out and remodeled as a shelter shed in 1956, and was finally razed in July 1967.
