With the pit line construction work underway on Western Railway, it is passengers who are suffering. All trains which started or culminated at Bandra Terminus have now shifted to either Dadar, Mumbai Central, and Borivli stations in the city or farther away to Vapi and Valsad in Gujarat. Passengers, unaware of the change, now have to shell out money from their own pockets to reach these stations or go to their original destination from them.

Western Railway is currently completing the work of pit lines which are washing lines with open dumping pit at base, throughout the track. It is used for cleaning and maintenance of compartments. The zonal railway had on November 19 issued a notification that read, “Till further instructions, all trains are diverted from Bandra Terminus to other stations.”
