Train launched between Bandra-Goa

In August, the railways flagged off a direct train from Bandra and Borivli to Konkan and Goa to help those staying in the western suburbs. At first look, it sounds like good optics but the train ends up circling the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) for multiple hours due to a lack of a clear path before it takes off just like flights hover over airports due to lack of landing space!

The train will operate bi-weekly on Wednesdays and Fridays and start from Bandra Terminus at 6.50 am reaching Madgaon in Goa at 10 pm. During the return journey, the train will start from Madgaon (Goa) at 7.40 am and reach Bandra Terminus at 11.40 am.
