Customers should expect delays of 45-60 minutes in both directions as crews operate at reduced speeds through the affected area.
Babylon Branch service also delayed after a person was struck by a train west of Rockville Centre. Delays are 20-30 minutes.
Customers onboard the 3:10AM train from Penn due Babylon at 4:20AM have completed evacuation to a rescue train. The LIRR says they are awaiting the arrival of the medical examiner in Rockville Centre.
The LIRR suggests utilizing alternate branches if possible, such as the Ronkonkoma, Huntington/Port Jefferson, Hempstead, or Long Beach branches.
