All Long Island Rail Road service except for the Port Washington line was suspended Monday morning due to a signal problem near the Jamaica station, according to the agency.
The signal malfunction began at 10:40 a.m. and it was unclear when the problem would be resolved, according to LIRR spokesman Rich Mendelson.
He said the malfunction was not weather-related.
Passengers with tickets for travel between Jamaica, Penn Station and the Atlantic Avenue station will have their fares honored on the New York City transit system, Mendelson said.
