Long Island Rail Road mainline service was partially suspended in both directions between Jamaica and Hicksville as the Metropolitan Transportation Authority cleared a vehicle from tracks east of the Bellerose station, an MTA spokesperson said Sunday evening.

Full service was restored shortly before 9 p.m.

The vehicle, which the MTA confirmed had been stuck on eastbound tracks near the Floral Park station since 4:52 p.m., led to a suspension of the Hempstead branch and delays along the Babylon, Oyster Bay, Port Jefferson and Ronkonkoma lines, according to the LIRR.
