Mumbai: New AC local train services on Central and Western Railway are likely to be introduced soon. As many as 20 new AC services will be introduced on the CR and WR. At present, 44 local trains operate on the mainline of the Central Railway.
The patronage of AC local trains on the Harbour line have not increased so the Central Railway will discontinue all AC local train services on the harbour railway and divert them to the Central and Western line.
Between May 1 to May 8, 28,141 passengers travelled by AC local trains every day on the Central Railway. Of the total, 24,842 passengers travelled on the Central Railway and 3,299 passengers on the Harbour railway.
