Wadala Road station doesn't have a rush hour; it has a crush hour. And the crowd is set to multiply at this junction station on the Harbour line from where trains depart for CSMT, Panvel, Andheri and Bandra, in addition to being a terminus for local trains. Reason: the new Mumbai Monorail Wadala station is ready and set to open just outside the suburban railway station, soon bringing more commuters here.

Wadala caters to commuters headed to Western Railway too, but quite poorly, as the frequency of connecting trains is very low. Pic/Pradeep Dhivar
