Fast suburban and outstation train lines will finally start getting segregated from this weekend, after a 14-hour work block. The segregation has been the main purpose of building the 5th and 6th corridors. “Only Kalyan-bound fast lines will be segregated this weekend and all other lines in the last block proposed in February,” a senior railway official said.
“The work will be done for 14 hours on Kalyan-bound fast line from 1.20 am on 23.01.2022 (Sat/Sun midnight) to 3.20 pm on 23.01.2022 and for two hours on CSMT-bound fast line from 12.30 pm to 2.30 pm on 23.01.2022 (Sunday). During the block period, trains will run on slow lines between Diva-Thane,” a Central Railway spokesperson said.
