Cloth Entangled in Sewri OHE Disrupts Mumbai Harbour Line Train Services
Local train services on Mumbai's Harbour line were disrupted on Saturday morning after a piece of cloth became entangled in overhead equipment at Sewri station around 9:44-9:45 am. This caused a temporary halt of CSMT-bound trains and power shutdown, leading to delays of 15 to 25 minutes during peak hours. Railway staff removed the obstruction by 10:13 am, restoring normal operations. Some commuters walked along tracks during the delay. The incident followed recent disruptions on Central Railway's network, including a separate scaffolding collapse at Kalwa carshed.
