The Central Railway (CR)completed two significant upgrades on its Mumbai suburban railway line over the weekend, including extending platforms and upgrading the signalling system at Mumbai CSMT and widening the platforms at Thane. These upgrades aim to accommodate longer 24-coach trains and handle increasing crowds. The work was completed well ahead of schedule, allowing the first train from CSMT to Titwala to depart at 1.10 pm itself.
