Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday inaugurated the new railway line between Thane and Diva in Maharashtra.
PM also flaged off two suburban trains of the Mumbai Suburban Railway.
Kalyan is the main junction of the Central Railway. The traffic coming from North side and Southern side of the country merge at Kalyan and moves towards Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT).
Out of the four tracks between Kalyan and CSTM, two tracks were used for slow local trains and two tracks for fast local, Mail Express and Goods trains. To segregate suburban and long-distance trains, two additional tracks were planned.
