Locust Manor is a station on the Long Island Rail Road's Atlantic Branch serving the residents of the Locust Manor neighborhood of Queens, New York. The station is located at Farmers Boulevard and Bedell Street and is 14.0 miles (22.5 km) from Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan. This station has two exits; one exit, adjacent to the Rochdale Village power house, is on the northeast portion of the sprawling Rochdale housing co-operative. At that end of the station, the staircase leads to a Bedell Street (southbound) walkway in between two private Rochdale parking lots, and to a northbound walkway leading to residential 134th Avenue. The southern exit leads to Farmers Boulevard, between Garrett and Bedell streets. There are short canopies near the exits. Ticket machines are at a pedestrian tunnel on the north (Rochdale Village) end of the station, at the base of the eastbound (Long Island-bound) LIRR station staircase. The Far Rockaway Branch provides regular service while Long Beach Branch trains skip this station on weekdays. On weekends, the services are reversed. During peak hours, trains from both branches skip or stop here. One weekend overnight westbound Babylon Branch train also stops here. The station is located in LIRR's zone 3, and is included in the CityTicket program. The stop serves the Rochdale, Queens section and its Rochdale Village apartment complex, and was also the stop for the racecourse on which Rochdale Village was erected, Jamaica Racetrack. Today it contains fiberglass populuxe designed shelters on high-level platforms. ==Platforms and tracks== This station has two high-level side platforms, each eight cars long. The north platform, adjacent to Track 1, is generally used by westbound or New York City-bound trains.
