Landia Station is a closed rail station on the Long Island Rail Road's Port Jefferson Branch in the Locust Grove section of Syosset, New York.
The station was opened on December 15, 1952 for the now former Circle (later Cerro) Wire plant. Service to the station was halted on June 26, 1972 as the station did not high-level platforms as the new M1 cars did not have stairs to grade-level. In 1970, ridership at the station consisted of two daily passengers. On October 3, 1973, the station closed permanently. Reopening the station has been proposed as a solution to the gap problem at Syosset as it is on a straight portion of track compared to the curved section at Syosset.
