The LIRR said eastbound trains were bypassing Hillside, Hollis and Queens Village.

The Q2, Q3, Q8 and Q110 buses will cross-honor customers for service between Jamaica and Queens Village. 

The cause of the derailment was not immediately known. 

“I have been briefed on the @LIRR derailment near Jamaica Station in Queens and State personnel are on the ground assisting with emergency response,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement.

“We will continue closely monitoring the situation to ensure passengers and rail workers are safe.”
