Sunnyside is a proposed railroad station of the Long Island Rail Road in Sunnyside, Queens. The station will be opened after the completion of the Grand Central Terminal East Side Access extension project, and will be within the City Terminal Zone. The projected area will be at Queens Boulevard and Skillman Avenue.

In the late 19th century, the LIRR had another Sunnyside Station, which was built by their subsidiary Newtown and Flushing Railroad, better known as the "White Line." This short-lived line was designed to compete with the Flushing and North Side Railroad in 1873. When the F&NS, was consolidated into the LIRR, along with the Central Railroad of Long Island and South Side Railroad of Long Island, the White Line was dissolved, along with the original Sunnyside Station.

Though no direct connection to other mass transit services are known, the nearest existing subway stations are at 33rd Street – Rawson Street on the IRT Flushing Line (7 train), Queensboro Plaza on the IRT Flushing Line and BMT Astoria Line (7 <7> N W trains), and Queens Plaza on the IND Queens Boulevard Line (E M R trains).
