Lindenhurst is a station on the Babylon Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is officially located at Wellwood Avenue (Suffolk CR 3) and East Hoffman Avenue (Suffolk CR 12) in Lindenhurst, New York.
Lindenhurst Station is typical of the elevated Babylon Branch stations that were rebuilt during the mid-to-late 20th Century. It was originally built by the South Side Railroad of Long Island on October 28, 1867 as "Wellwood Station." It was renamed "Breslau Station" in 1870, after developers Thomas Wellwood and Charles S. Schleier renamed the community after their native Breslau in Prussia, then was renamed "Lindenhurst Station" in 1891. The station was burned down on January 23, 1901. The second station was built in 1902. This station was replaced with a temporary station with high-level platforms on October 25, 1968 when construction of the current elevated station was started. The current elevated station was opened on August 7, 1973, and was renovated in the early 2000s, along with much of the rest of the Babylon line. The 1902 station was moved to a private location and restored as a museum in 1971.

Qui fait quoi
Pour qui et pour quoi,
Trois p'tit points d'interrogation
Lequel et comment
Combien à qui où et quand,
Et pour répondre à nos questions,
Rien de mieux de plus sérieux,
Que deux ou trois vieux monsieurs,
Mais pour finir,
C'est toujours bla bla bla,
Pas d'quoi rire,
c'est encore bla bla bla,
Bla bla bla.
S'ils sont fous
c'est bien fait pour nous,
Ou fallait pas
Ou y'avait qu'à,
Assez assez de beaux discours,
Ou bien au moin faite-les plus courts,
On en a des cahiers,
Des livres entiers,
Et des montagnes de papier,
Et sans mentir,
C'est toujours bla bla bla,
Pas d'quoi rire,
c'est encore bla bla bla,
Bla bla bla.
Qui de la poule, qui de l'oeuf,
Toute une foule de philosophes,
Et des savants mieux qu'avant,
Et des experts mieux qu'hier {x2}
Aaaah Aaaah Aaaah Aaaah
Mais pour finir,
C'est toujours bla bla bla,
Pas d'quoi rire,
c'est encore bla bla bla,
Bla bla bla.
Et sans mentir
C'est toujours bla bla bla,
Pas d'quoi rire,
c'est encore bla bla bla,
Bla bla bla.
Qui de la poule, qui de l'oeuf,
Toute une foule de philosophes,
Et des savants mieux qu'avant,
Et des experts mieux qu'hier.
