Mumbai Local Trains to Run on Time: New Rules for Mail-Express Trains Implemented

• Central Railway implements a special plan to prevent delays in Mumbai local train services, a major relief for daily commuters.
• Mail and Express trains from North India will be temporarily halted at stations like Titwala, Asangaon, and Kasara during morning peak hours.
• This measure aims to prevent long-distance trains from disrupting the suburban railway tracks and ensure timely local train operations.
• Commuters on the Central Railway route, especially from Karjat, Badlapur, and Titwala towards CSMT, have faced significant delays.
• The new experiment addresses issues caused by delayed Mail-Express trains entering Mumbai during rush hour, often due to dense fog in North India.

Why It Matters: Central Railway introduces new rules to prioritize Mumbai local trains, halting Mail-Express trains during peak hours.
