Freeport is an express station on the Babylon Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is located in Freeport Plaza between Henry Street and Benson Place just north of NY 27 in Freeport, New York.

Freeport Station was originally built on October 28, 1867 by the South Side Railroad of Long Island, and was rebuilt in 1899. It is among many of the stations along the Babylon Branch that were elevated throughout Nassau and Western Suffolk Counties during the 1960s, in this case October 1960.

Some afternoon rush-hour trains terminate at Freeport; and some morning rush-hour trains originate at Freeport.

The station is served by several different Nassau Inter-County Express routes.

Station layout

The station has one 12-car-long high-level island platform between the two tracks. There are two layover tracks east of the station.
