History

[edit]

Cutchogue station first appeared on an issued timetable on July 29, 1844,[1][2][3] Some sort of structure that was described as new is mentioned in a notice of March 1870. In August 1875 a depot building was put up. A newer and larger station building was erected in 1887.[4][5] The station building was closed in 1958 and it was discontinued as a station stop around June 1962.[6]
