The train was first delayed by snow and ice and was then stopped by a passenger car that became stuck while crossing the tracks.
Then, the train was stopped again when the weather caused the locomotive pulling the train to break down.
McGowan says the train was towed to a nearby station and passengers were put on a second train and sent on their way by 8:15 a.m. No injuries were reported.
McGowan says LIRR is offering only limited service, and delays are averaging two hours.
