After mid-day wrote about the development of a slum colony on railway land near Bandra Terminus, Western Railway (WR) swung into action on Tuesday. The shanties have been dismantled, with most of the structures being pulled down, though families who were occupying the space and their wares could still be seen at the site. 

Railway workers were also observed removing scrap material from the spot. The slum colony had come up on the abandoned rail corridor that once comprised the fifth and sixth lines on Ghas Bazar land, bypassing the Muslim kabrastan and the Hindu crematorium between the WR main lines and the Bandra Terminus.
