From what I can tell, Ramblersville was on the Rockaway Beach Branch, just north (Railroad West) of Jamaica Bay.
According to Wikipedia:
The Howard Beach–JFK Airport station was originally a Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) station along the Rockaway Beach Branch. The LIRR station opened in 1913 to replace the nearby Ramblersville station. The LIRR ceased operations at this station in 1950, and the New York City Transit Authority bought the section of the Rockaway Beach Branch that included this station in 1952.

In 1899, the Long Island Rail Road, opened the Ramblersville station. The community sandwiches Hawtree Creek.
