Central Railway Plans More 15-Coach Trains on Kalyan-Kasara Route Amid Delays
Central Railway plans to introduce 18 additional 15-coach local trains on the Kalyan-Kasara route after Diwali, increasing capacity by 25% per service. Platform extension work at Titwala is underway, while similar expansions at CSMT face delays due to space constraints and technical challenges. Meanwhile, an unannounced railway block between Umbermali and Kasara caused 30-45 minute delays, disrupting commuters. The newly approved third railway line on this corridor awaits passenger operations, aiming to ease congestion.
