The updated platform numbering at Dadar station, introduced on Wednesday morning, has added to the confusion for passengers on Central Railway (CR). Now, when fast local or express trains arrive, platform 9A will be on one side of the train and platform 10 on the other. It will now be for the first time that one train will arrive on two platforms 9A on one side and 10 on the other side. Till Tuesday, the platforms had been numbered platforms 10 and 10A respectively.

Also, platform numbers at Dadar had been changed in less than a year and such frequent changes have not gone well with commuters. “Why make it more confusing unnecessarily, just keep both of them as 10 as there is a single line between them. CSMT has platform 2 and not 2 and 2A for either side of the line. Follow this and keep both as 10,” said commuter Nishant Singh.
