Suburban train services on Mumbai's Harbour and Trans-Harbour lines operated by the Central Railway (CR) were disrupted during the morning peak hours on Thursday due to a technical snag i💝n the signalling system at a Navi Mumbai railway station, official♌s said.
The glitch occurred at the Juinagar railway station leading to a delay of about an hour on the Harbour (Pan🍎vel to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus) and the Trans-Harbour (Panvel to Thane) routes, they said.
";Due to the glitch in the signal, a track-changing point at Juinagar railway station got out of order from 6 am. Because of the problem, the suburban services were running only between CSMT to Vashi on the Harbour line and Thane to Nerul on the Trans-H💧arbor route till the problem was rectified at 7 pm," an official said.
Shivaji Sutar, chief public relations officer of the CR, said that although the issue ⛦got resolved and the services resumed later, it caused a delay on both the routes due to bunching of trains.
Passengers said that even after the resumption of services, the locals got delayed by at least 20 minutes on the H🎐arbour line during the morning rush hour, although the delay was slightly less on the Trans-Harbour line.
Trains on the Harbour line ferry around 10 lak✅h commut🌱ers daily.
