A floor-cleaning machine fell on a track at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) in Mumbai on Tuesday morning, briefly affecting the movement of a local train, an official said.
A contractual operator lost control of the machine, causing it to fall on the track just as a Mumbai local train was pulling into the platform at 11.33 am, he said.
