Mumbai Local Trains Face Disruptions
On Sunday, Mumbai's Central Railway will have a big maintenance break, called a mega block, which will stop some local trains from running.
This will happen from 10:55 am to 3:55 pm on the Main Line between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and Vidyavihar.
Some trains will be cancelled or diverted, and stations like Masjid and Vidyavihar won't have any trains stopping.
The Harbour Line and Trans-Harbour Line will also be affected.
To help people travel, special trains will run on some routes.
The railway asks everyone to check the new schedules and plan their trips ahead of time.
Mega block on Sunday from 10:55 am to 3:55 pm on the Main Line between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and Vidyavihar.
Services on slow lines in both directions will be suspended for maintenance work.
Stations like Masjid, Sandhurst Road, Chinchpokli, Kari Road, and Vidyavihar will have temporary suspension of train stoppages.
Harbour Line between Panvel and Vashi and Trans-Harbour Line between Panvel and Thane will also be affected.
