Due to ongoing heavy rainfall in Mumbai and Raigad since early Monday morning several trains between Pune and Mumbai were cancelled.
The heavy rains caused waterlogging between Khadavli-Titwala in the Kalyan and Kasara section of the Mumbai division, resulting in the cancellation of trains, said officials.
As per a press release issued by Central Railways, four trains from Pune to Mumbai were cancelled. These include Pune-Mumbai Sinhagad Express, Pune-Mumbai Deccan Queen Express, Pune-Mumbai Deccan Express, and Pune-Mumbai Intercity Express.
Similarly, four trains from Mumbai to Pune were also cancelled. These include Mumbai-Pune Sinhagad Express, Mumbai-Pune Intercity Express, Mumbai-Pune Deccan Queen Express, and Mumbai-Pune Deccan Express
The cancellation of trains has led to disappointment amongst the passengers.
“I had an important meeting with one of my clients in Mumbai and had booked a ticket for Deccan Queen train. But now I had to cancel the meeting,” said Satish Kedari, a businessman from Pune.
