The location of the train station in Roslyn is at the intersection of Susquehanna Road and Easton Road. Today's railroad station, which replaced the original in the late 1970s, is on SEPTA's Warminster Line. The first rail connection to Roslyn was built by the Northeast Pennsylvania Railroad in 1873. He built lime kilns to turn the abundant local limestone into quicklime, starting an industry that operated into the late 20th century.

The first known person of European descent to settle the area was John Tyson, who bought a tract of land here in 1717. Originally called Hillside, the name Roslyn came from rose gardens that once grew there.
