New York - Wantagh Railroad Museum

The Wantagh station was built in 1885 for eight hundred dollars. Until 1891, it was known as Ridgewood station. In that year, the community adopted the name Wantagh. The station originally stood on Railroad Avenue, east of Wantagh Avenue. It was moved to its present location in 1966, in order to save it from demolition as the Babylon branch of the LIRR was being elevated, and the new station building was built.
