Local train services on the Central Railway’s main line were briefly disrupted on Tuesday morning after a rail fracture was detected between Vikhroli and Kanjurmarg stations in Mumbai, officials said.
The incident caused suburban trains, considered the lifeline of Mumbai, to run 10 to 20 minutes behind schedule, some commuters said.
The fracture was spotted on the down slow line at 7.32 am, prompting authorities to impose a speed restriction and divert services to maintain safety, the officials said.
