Normal service has resumed on the SkyTrain after an electrical problem led to a frustrating commute in Vancouver early Monday morning.

The issue at Waterfront station began at 5:35 a.m. and resulted in the suspension of regular service in both directions between Waterfront and Stadium stations.

Technicians corrected the issue by 8 a.m., when trains returned to normal service. TransLink warned travellers to expect heavier than normal passenger loads.

On Twitter, commuters complained that issues downtown led to long delays and packed trains throughout the SkyTrain system.
