Long Island Rail Road service was restored in Nassau County Thursday morning after being suspended as a massive fire raged at a nearby waste-handling facility overnight, officials said. The six-alarm fire was still expected to burn for hours.
The blaze at Jamaica Ash & Rubbish Removal facility on Covert Lane was reported just before 9 p.m. Wednesday, according to The Nassau County Fire Marshal’s office. Part of the structure has collapsed from the unrelenting flames and more than 200 firefighters were still working to gain control of the fire early Thursday.
