Commuters suffer as train services hit on Mumbai's Harbour line a day after derailment

Hindustan Times  

Mumbai, A day after an empty local train derailed near the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus here, services on the Harbour line were badly affected during the morning peak hours on Thursday due to bunching of trains. The Central Railway said it happened due to the imposition of speed restriction at 10 kmph for local trains at the crossover point close to the CSMT station - the spot where two incidents of derailment occurred in three days. The delay of suburban services on Harbour line is as a result of it," CR's chief public relations officer Swapnil Nila said. Harbour line provides suburban local connectivity to Navi Mumbai and western parts of Mumbai from South Mumbai.
