Central Railway Aims to Restore Third Line by July 31
Central Railway is working hard to fix a damaged railway line in the Lonavala–Karjat area.
A big landslide happened earlier this month, and they are trying to rebuild the line by July 31.
They are working from both the top and bottom of the slope to make it faster.
Two lines are already open, but the third one is still being fixed.
This is important because many trains are being canceled or diverted until the third line is ready.
Passengers should check for updates on train schedules.
Once the third line is open, train services will go back to normal, and there will be less congestion.
Central Railway aims to restore the third line in the Lonavala–Karjat ghat section by July 31.
Two lines have already been reopened, but the third line is critical for full capacity.
Restoration work is being done simultaneously from the top and bottom of the slope.
Train cancellations and diversions will continue until the third line is restored.
Passengers are advised to check the National Train Enquiry System (NTES) for updates.
