Western Railway to Introduce Four 12-Car Non-AC Trains
Western Railway is adding four new 12-car non-AC trains to the Mumbai suburban network.
This is happening because they finished building a new track between Kandivali and Borivali.
The new trains will help make the rides less crowded and more comfortable for passengers.
They are also moving some long-distance trains to different tracks to make things run more smoothly.
This is good news for people who travel on these trains every day.
