(rshsdepot) LIRR station for Brighton Beach, 1878

["Paul Luchter" <luckyshow_@_mindspring.com>]

OK, this picture:
http://iii.brooklynpubliclibrary.org:80/articles/10247862.2214/1.JPEG  out of the 1946 Brooklyn Eagle says:
"The first train of the Brooklyn, Flatbush and Coney Island Ry. leaving Long Island Station in Brooklyn, N.Y. for Brighton Beach, back in 1878."

The sign on the station says Long Island R.R./Brighton Beach  So, was this a station on Atlantic Avenue near Franklin?

Anyone know? Please explain if so, thank you.

Paul
