History

The westbound platform, with the station house visible at center-right.

A station was built in Nassau (then Queens) County in December 1875 in nearby Woodbury as "Woodbury station", as an extension of the Hicksville and Syosset Railroad. It was renamed "Cold Spring station" on October 15, 1880,[4][5] when the southern part of Laurel Hollow was still known as Cold Spring. Sometime between 1901 and 1902, the station was moved east to the now Cold Springs Hills community of the hamlet of West Hills and took its current name of Cold Spring Harbor.[4] The station was reconstructed in 1948, during which time the current station house was erected.[4][6] In 1970, the station was electrified, along with the rest of the Port Jefferson Branch between Mineola and Huntington.[7]

Since 2007, the station has served as the western terminus of New York State Bicycle Route 25A.[8]

Station layout

The station has two high-level side platforms. Platform A is 12 cars long and Platform B is eight cars long. One inbound morning train and three outbound evening trains stop at the opposite platform.
