The Central Railway in Mumbai is set to undergo a massive 63-hour mega block starting from midnight on May 30. This disruption is due to platform extension and widening works at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus in south Mumbai and the Thane station. The Central Railway has urged Mumbaikars to limit their travel during this period to avoid inconvenience.

The mega block will result in the cancellation of 161 services, affecting local and long-distance train services, particularly from Karjat and Kas areas. The Mumbai local train services will be significantly impacted, with over 900 trains set to be halted or curtailed. Central Railway is actively informing passengers about the changes and adjustments in services through their social media platforms.

Shiv Sena has reached out to the Maharashtra Chief Minister, urging for necessary measures to reduce the disruption caused by the mega block. With over 900 trains affected, commuters are advised to plan their journeys carefully and consider alternative modes of transport to avoid delays.

In conclusion, the 63-hour mega block by Central Railway highlights the ongoing infrastructure developments in Mumbai's bustling train network. The platform extension and widening projects aim to enhance the overall commuter experience and modernize the railway facilities in the city. Despite the inconvenience, these infrastructure upgrades will ultimately benefit the millions of passengers who rely on the Central Railway services daily.
