The suburban train services on the fast corridor in Mumbai, which were affected after the Puducherry Express derailed near Matunga station in the city, will be fully restored by Saturday noon, a Central Railway spokesperson said.

Three coaches of the Dadar-Puducherry Express (Train no 11005) derailed near Matunga station on Friday night after the engine of the CSMT-Gadag Express, going in the same direction, dashed it sideways. Following the incident, several long-distance express trains were cancelled or short-terminated, and the local train traffic was also affected.
