In the recent past, we've highlighted
several times how Harbour Line needs to buckle up a bit given the
constant train delays. Earlier, the local trains weren't running on time
during the rush hour—which generally isn't the case with Western or
Central Line—but now the 'privilege' has been extended much beyond. In
other words, the rush hour doesn't end only! The number of passengers
keep rising to dangerous levels even after the clock strikes nine. The
above picture is from the past week at Kurla when the time was well above 11 in the
night. The platform number is seven and during this time, no other
platform witness such crowd. Is it because the trains are running
properly on Central Line or is it because the commuters are relatively
lower in number? In anyway, isn't it high something got done for Harbour
Line? It's an utter case of apathy from the railway authority who have
been treating the CST-Panvel Line as a stepchild. If not, what else can
explain this daily harassment?
