Central Railway has decided to run eight special local trains on the intervening night of Thursday and Friday for the benefit of devotees in connection with Ganpati immersion.

These specials will run stopping at all stations between Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus – Kalyan/Thane on main line and between Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus – Panvel on harbour line.

Meanwhile, Western Railway will not be halting its slow Up trains (those going towards Churchgate) on platform number 2 of Charni Road on Thursday evening between 4.03pm to 10.07pm. This is to reduce the congestion that Charni Road stations sees during Ganpati immersion when thousands of devotees alight at the station to make their way to Girgaum Chowpatty.

However, to compensate for this WR also announced that fast trains moving towards Churchgate will be given halt at Charni road station between 4:52pm to 8:21pm. Generally, fast trains during evening peak hours run directly between Mumbai Central and Churchgate.
