Central Railway will operate special traffic and power block of 10 hours between Kalva-Mumbra Up slow line from 08.00 am to 06.00 pm on September 26, 2021, in connection with slewing of Up slow line for Thane-Diva 5th & 6th Line.
It is learned that Central Railway has requested the state government to provide extra bus service as many local trains will be cancelled. A new route is being constructed on the Central line through Mumbai Railway Development Corporation (MRVC) to provide separate routes for mail-express trains. Therefore, the journey from Thane to Kalyan as well as from CSMT for local trains will be easier.
Due to this, the train running pattern will be as under:
• Up slow/semi-fast services leaving Kalyan from 7.27 am to 5.40 pm will be diverted on Up fast line between Diva and Mulund stations, further rediverted at Mulund and arrive their destination 10 minutes behind schedule.
• All locals leaving Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus between 8.00 am and 5.00 pm and arriving at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus between 9.00 am and 7.00 pm will arrive at destination 10 minutes behind schedule.
• Last local before block for Kalva and Mumbra stations – Diva dep 07.38 am
• First local after block for Kalva and Mumbra stations – Diva dep 06.02 pm
• Due to this block, certain suburban services will be cancelled but special services will be run for the benefit of passengers. The state government authorities have been informed to arrange buses for the convenience of passengers travelling in block affected areas.
Passengers are requested to bear with the Railway Administration for the inconvenience caused due to this infrastructure upgrade block.
