Amagansett (LIRR station)
Amagansett is a station on the Montauk Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, at Main Street (NY 27) and Abrahms Landing Road (former Suffolk CR 33A) in Amagansett, New York.
==History==
Amagansett station was opened on June 1, 1895 by the Brooklyn and Montauk Railroad, and closely resembled stations such as Sea Cliff and the former East Williston Depot, but lacked the second story and gingerbread woodwork trim that these depots contained. It was burned to the ground in 1909, reportedly by a disgruntled LIRR employee. The station was rebuilt on August 15, 1910 in the colonial barn style typical of stations such as Riverhead, Bay Shore, Northport, and Mineola. Until 1929, it had train sheds, a wye, and coal and water dispensing facilities. On June 13, 1942, Nazi saboteurs used Amagansett station en route to New York City for the failed mission known as Operation Pastorius.〔(Night of the Nazis (Montauk Life) )〕 The station house was closed in 1958 or January 1959, then razed on August 31, 1964 and replaced with a sheltered platform in 1965, a fact which has aroused disgust among railfans and local historians. The 1895-built former freight house survives, but was abandoned.〔(Abandoned Freight House (Existing Railroad Stations in New York State) )〕 High-level platforms were added between 2000 and 2001, as many stations along the Long Island Rail Road were getting at the time.
