Directions

The Long Island Live Steamers track is located in Suffolk's Southaven County Park. The park is roughly bordered by the Long Island Expressway to the north, Sunrise Highway to the south, William Floyd Parkway to the east, and Gerrard Road to the west. Our entrance and parking lot is accessed via Gerrard Road.  

Gerrard Road was recently renamed Howie Carpluk Memorial Road, in memory of FDNY Lieutenant Howie Carpluk.  Signs at both ends of Gerrard Road now read Howie Carpluk Memorial Road.

Next Public Run Day


Summer is in Full Swing!

Rumor has it that when Thomas Jefferson was rushing to complete the Declaration of Independence in time for the Fourth of July weekend he had thoughts of unwinding with a nice train ride. Ok, so I'm the one who started the rumor and there were no trains to ride even if he wanted to. Well, there's no reason for you to miss out on the fun this July. Our Run Days in July are on the 9th and 30th. Train rides will be provided from 10:30AM to 3PM. In addition, our Mid-summer Meet is July 20-23. [details]

Frequent visitors will notice some changes at the track this year. [more]
