Suburban train services on Mumbai's Harbour line disrupted

Suburban rail services on the Harbour corridor between CSMT and Vadala Road stations were suspended this morning due to technical problems in the overhead equipment, causing inconvenience to thousands of passengers.

Teams of engineers have been engaged to restore the services as soon as possible.

"Due to the technical problem in the overhead equipment, suburban services on the Harbour corridor between CSMT and Vadala Road stations have been suspended," Chief PRO of Central Railways Sunil Udasi said.

However, services between Vadala Road to Andheri and Vadala Road to Panvel sections are running, he added.

Expressing regret for the inconvenience caused to passengers, he said alternative arrangements have been made for commuters.

"Commuters holding valid tickets or passes can travel from Kurla to CSMT and back on the main line till services are restored. On our request, BEST is running additional buses on the affected stretch."
