Can a remote team work

Remote teams seem to be common in larger organisations and something I am very new to.

I've always worked with my dev team around me but now I'm the lone BA working in a different time from the main team.

I'm finding it harder to learn their ways of working, often not included in meetings or I find it hard to make myself heard.

None of which has ever been in issue in previous roles!

So really I'm looking for some pointers and advice on how to be the lone remote worker in a team.

Thanks
