About Wantagh Museum
The Wantagh Museum showcases three historical structures: the 1885 Old Wantagh Rail Road Station, the 1912 'Jamaica' Parlor Car, and a recreated 1904 Wantagh Post Office. The Station, restored to its 1904 appearance, displays turn-of-the-century photographs and historical memorabilia. Visitors can explore the 'Jamaica' parlor car, which once served the LIRR and was used by Governor Rockefeller and President John F. Kennedy. These exhibits collectively offer a glimpse into everyday life from a century ago.
