Mumbai: AC Local Trains Reduce Capacity For Additional Train Services In Suburban Section, CR Affidavit RevealsCentral Railway (CR) in Mumbai is facing challenges in expanding air-conditioned (AC) local train services due to capacity constraints and operational limitations.

The CR affidavit highlights that expanding AC services would lead to slower speeds, delays, and potentially necessitate more trains to maintain current service levels. This is attributed to shared tracks with other services, including mail and express trains, freight trains, and festive special trains.

CR ka affidavit highlight karta hai ki AC services badhane se train ki speed kam hogi, delays honge aur shayad current service levels maintain karne ke liye zyada trains ki jarurat padegi. Ye sab shared tracks ki wajah se hai, jiske upar mail aur express trains, freight trains, aur festive special trains bhi chalti hain.
