Locust Valley is a railroad station along the Oyster Bay Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is located at Birch Hill Road and Piping Rock Road, south of Forest Avenue, Locust Valley, New York.

Locust Valley Station was opened on April 19, 1869 and was the terminus of the line until 1889. It was rebuilt in November 1872, remodeled in 1885, and rebuilt again in December 1906, when the second station was moved to a private location. When Mill Neck Station was closed on March 16, 1998, Locust Valley became the last station before the end of the line.

No bus access is available at the station; however, local taxicabs do stop there.
