There are two: Manhattan is an island unto itself. Staten Island is an island unto itself. Brooklyn and Queens are geographically, anyway, part of Long Island. The Bronx is the only of the five boroughs attached to the mainland United States. Hope that helps.

How do you take a train from Long Island to Astoria Queens?

Well, technically, Queens is on Long Island. The New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens (which are Kings County and Queens County in state government) occupy the western end of Long Island. The remaining eastern portion of the island is made up of Nassau and Suffolk Counties, which are part of New York State, but not part of New York City. But usually when New Yorkers say "Long Island" they mean only the portion that is NOT part of New York City. In other words, "Long Island" usually means "Nassau and Suffolk" specifically. And I assume that is what you meant, too. To answer your question: you would take the LIRR (Long Island Railroad) and then transfer to the New York City subway system. A more useful answer cannot be given without knowing which town or city on Long Island you're coming from. Without knowing where on Long Island you're coming from, I can't say which branch of the LIRR you have to take, what stop to get off at, and which subway lines to transfer to. Keep in mind that Long Island is 1,400 square miles. Excluding the portion that is part of New York City (Brooklyn and Queens) it's still over 1,100 square miles. There is no way to give useful directions from "somewhere on Long Island" to Astoria, Queens.
