Mumbai experienced a brief disruption in its peak hour harbour line train services on Tuesday due to a technical fault in the overhead electrification (OHE) wires. The fault, which occurred between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) and Wadala stations, halted both up and down services for approximately 16 minutes. Local trains returning home on Tuesday evening through the Harbour Line faced delays and disruptions, affecting the schedules of trains traveling from CSMT towards Panvel and Goregaon.
Commuters were left stranded on the tracks or waiting on station platforms due to the technical issue, which started at 7:11pm. The railway administration's efforts to fix the fault restored power to the OHE on the up line by 7:18pm and the down line at 7:27pm, gradually restoring traffic and allowing passengers to resume their journeys home.
