Kings Park is a station for the Port Jefferson Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is located at the southwest corner of Suffolk CR 14(Indian Head Road) and NY 25A(Main Street) in Kings Park, New York. Kings Park station also had a spur to the former Kings Park Psychiatric Center. The spur was officially decommissioned in 1971, but trains were used to bring coal to the hospital as recently as 1987. Today the right-of-way serves as the Kings Park Hike and Bike Trail, which leads to the Nissequogue River State Park.
