Babylon Branch trains are back to normal this morning after a disabled train earlier this morning caused transit issues.

The MTA said the disabled train happened at the Babylon train yard in West Islip.

The incident prevented trains from accessing one of the tracks at the Babylon station.

The issue initially caused delays on the island's busiest train line to start the workweek.

Long Island Rail Road personnel worked to remove the train from the area.
