The Western Railway (WR) promptly responded to the situation, reporting that the technical issue was resolved around 9:05 AM. Subsequently, normal operations on all three lines were restored. WR officials said that movement on the down-slow line, initially impacted by the failure, has now been restored.
In a separate incident earlier the same morning, train services were interrupted due to fallen trees between Prabhadevi and Dadar stations. Reports indicate that the incident was reported around 7:30 AM. Quick action by concerned officials ensured that the track was cleared and deemed safe by approximately 8:10 AM, enabling the resumption of train movements in the affected area.
Both incidents highlight the challenges faced by Mumbai's suburban railway network, particularly during the monsoon season when weather-related disruptions are common. Commuters are advised to stay updated with official announcements and plan their journeys accordingly to minimize inconvenience.
