Western Railway to cancel 296 trains on Dec 27, several AC locals to also be affected

Mumbai: On December 27, a total number of 296 trains will remain cancelled and the following day, on December 28, 235 trains will remain cancelled.

More than 320 to 350 local train services on the Western Railway's Mumbai network will remain cancelled daily between December 26 and 29 due to a major block for the sixth railway line work between Kandivli and Borivli.

Vineet Abhishek, Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, told PTI that a 30-day major block has been taken on this section, due to which 320 to 350 suburban services will remain cancelled between December 26 and 29 and on January 10 for completion of the non-linking works, including changes in the signalling system.

"The works are mainly carried out during late night to early morning hours so that commuters face the least inconvenience," Abhishek said .

The work, commenced on December 20, is scheduled to be completed on January 18, 2026. On the completion of the block, the metropolis will get a new railway line between two busy stations on the Western railway network, helping to make the suburban commute smoother.

As part of the ambitious Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP), a separate sixth line is being laid between Borivali and Mumbai Central to segregate suburban and long-distance trains.  "By December 18, Mumbai will get a 3 to 3.5-km-long sixth line between Kandivali and Borivali stations," 

Western Railway operates more than 1,400 suburban local trains daily on its network stretching from Churchgate in south Mumbai to Dahanu in Palghar district, over 125 km from the metropolis.

According to a press release issued by Chief Public Relations Officer Vineet Abhishek, a major non-interlocking block will be carried out for the commissioning of the Electronic Interlocking (EI) panel at Borivali.

The block will be in place on the UP and DOWN fast lines from 1 am to 7 am on 27/28 December 2025.

During this period some UP Mail and Express trains will skip their halt at Borivali station

Platforms 8 and 9 at Borivali will remain closed until December 29, 2025.

Impact on suburban services

Due to the block, the suspension of the fifth line, and the closure of platforms 8 and 9, several suburban services will be cancelled.

Some Borivali and Andheri local trains will operate only up to Goregaon on the Harbour Line, WR said.
