Central Railway (CR) has decided to attach one Second Class Chair Car (Non-AC) coach to 11009/11010 Sinhagad Express after reports of disputes started increasing in this train.
The decision came into effect from May 1, which is also Maharashtra Day. With this, Mumbai-Pune Sinhagad Express will now run with 16 coaches bringing a sigh of relief among the commuters.
It is pertinent to note that from the last few months there have been several disputes over seats. Earlier, there were 19 coaches for the train, which was reduced to 14 coaches. This has led to congestion over seating capacity.
11009 Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus Mumbai- Pune Sinhagad Express ex. CSMT with effect from 01.05.2023.
11010 Pune-Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus Mumbai- Pune Sinhagad Express ex. Pune with effect from 01.05.2023
Revised Composition: 16 Coaches including one AC Chair car, 13 Second Class seating, one Luggage cum Guard’s Brake Vans and one Generator Car.
CR has appealed passengers to check the status of their waitlisted tickets before undertaking the journey. Passengers are also advised to follow COVID-19 appropriate behaviour for their and other's safety.
