Fixed at the height of 4,270 mm as compared to the 4,283 mm ones of the ones that run on Western Railway. A senior official said that the new AC local has been customised to requirements of all Central Railway and that this train can run across all sectors with ease. Explaining the difference in height, an official explained that there were quite a few British-era bridges along the Central Railway that are quite low in height. "This had led to problems of running the AC local that was taller than the traditional non-AC local trains," he added.

The much-awaited Central Railway's first new and fresh Air-Conditioned local train, India's shortest one, arrived at Kurla car shed on Tuesday.
