Western Railway (WR) on Friday announced that there will be no day block on its suburban section on Sunday, August 31.

However, to carry out essential maintenance work of tracks, signalling and overhead equipment, a jumbo block will be operated at Mumbai Central (Main) station during the intervening night of Saturday and Sunday. The block will be in place on all the lines from 12.30 am to 4 am on Sunday.

WR officials said the overnight block is necessary to ensure the safety and smooth functioning of railway operations. Regular train services on Sunday will run without any daytime disruption.
