Amityville is the westernmost station of the Babylon-Montauk Branch of the Long Island Rail Road in Suffolk County, New York. It is located on John Street in Amityville, New York, but the official description of its location isn't as precise. The MTA describes the station as being located on John Street between Sunrise Highway (NY 27) and NY 27A west of NY 110. John Street is located between Sterling Place and West Oak Street (Old Sunrise Highway, NY Ref 900D).

Amityville Station is typical of the elevated Babylon Branch trains that were rebuilt during the mid-to-late 20th century. It was originally built in 1868 by the South Side Railroad of Long Island, then replaced by a brick station in 1889, only to be completely demolished during the elevation of the tracks in 1964. The 1868 station has been a private residence since it was replaced.
