Roslyn station (LIRR)
Roslyn is a station on the Long Island Rail Road's Oyster Bay Branch. It is located at Lincoln Avenue and Railroad Avenue, west of Roslyn Road and south of Warner Avenue in Roslyn Heights, New York. History

Roslyn station opened on January 23, 1865 by the Glen Cove Branch Rail Road, a subsidiary of the Long Island Rail Road. In 1882, the LIRR attempted to extend the former Flushing and North Side Railroad main line from the Great Neck station to the Roslyn station. This proposal dates back to an F&NS subsidiary, called the "Roslyn and Huntington Railroad", ultimately failed, and that line was instead extended to Port Washington in 1898. In the meantime, Roslyn station was moved in 1885, in order to accommodate a new freight station, and the station was rebuilt between June and July 1887. In the early 20th century, the New York & North Shore Traction Company's Port Washington Line stopped at and served the station; the n23 bus follows much this former trolley line's route. The station house was restored to its 19th-century origins in 1981. In 1988, Roslyn Station was moved to the south side of Lincoln Avenue; this project saw the moving of the historic station house to this new location, where it stands today. Station layout
