Queens Village is a station on the Long Island Rail Road's Main Line, located between 218th Street and Springfield Boulevard in Queens Village, Queens, New York City, United States. It has two side platforms along the four-track line, and only serves Hempstead Branch trains. To the east of the station is Queens Interlocking, a universal interlocking that splits the four-track line into two two-track lines - the Main Line and Hempstead Branch - and controls the junction with the spur to Belmont Park.
The Q1, Q27, Q36, and Q88 local buses stop at the station.
