The train is being launched from Borivali railway station. After getting the approval of this train from the Railway Board, its schedule has also been announced. The reservation of the train has already started online as well as at the reservation windows.
Strong demand for stops on Tutari Express line
It is true that this train was announced as per the demand of Konkan residents, but the railway has drawn the ire of the traveling public while deciding the stops of the train. As the newly launched train does not get stops as expected, rather than the joy of getting a new train, the railways is being criticized for the insufficient stops given to the train. The regular trains will start from September 3. Considering this, the railway still has the opportunity to provide enough stops to the train.
After fighting for the train for so many years, should we fight again to get stops, the representatives of railway passenger organizations who have been continuously pursuing for this train have expressed their angry reaction. We will not sit back if the new car does not get enough stops.
