Mumbai Commuters travelling on the harbour line of the Central Railway will be able to travel in the Air-Conditioned (AC) compartments from December 1.
The Central Railway has decided to operate 12 AC local train services between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) and Panvel railway station from Wednesday. They have decided to operate three AC local trains during peak hours in the morning and evening. Each train is expected to cover 12 rounds in a day, said a senior railway official.
Currently, 26 AC local train services are operational on the Central Railway mainline between CSMT-Kalyan and trans-harbour railway line between Thane and Vashi railway stations. On average, as many as 3000 commuters take the AC local trains every day.
