The Central Railway has successfully commissioned the long-awaited Karjat yard remodelling with an advanced signalling system boosting the capacity of the yard by 25 per cent for train movements. In addition to this, multiple lines have been remodelled, and a new bi-directional line added, so conflicting train movements can be avoided, and freight trains can be segregated from main lines. This marks a major milestone in Central Railway’s ongoing mission to modernise infrastructure, enhance safety, and improve operational efficiency.

The Rs 74.53-crore project replaces one of the oldest operational electrical signalling systems on CR with a state-of-the-art mechanism, paving the way for safer, faster, and more reliable train operations.
