Train traffic between Brussels-North station and Vilvoorde was disrupted on Tuesday morning after a body was found on the tracks.
Belgian railway operator SNCB notified passengers via social media that trains between Brussels-North and Vilvoorde were disrupted on Tuesday morning.
"Just before 08:00 this morning a body was noticed on the train track near Buda station in Vilvoorde," an SNCB spokesperson confirmed to The Brussels Times.
This led to disruptions on the route, as well as fewer trains between Brussels and Antwerp.

Normal traffic has since resumed "gradually" but "delays and cancellations remain possible," SNCB stated.
