For the railways, it was quite a feat. Despite heavy rainfall, while suburban services on Central Railway's (CR) main line, Harbour and Western Railway (WR) slowed down, they continued to function throughout the day, barring a few stray incidents.

A wall collapse at Sandhurst Road station led to the shutting down of the Kalyan-bound slow line for about 15 minutes when the debris was being cleared. A fire in a pantograph on the Thane-Harbour line led to disruption of services for some time in the afternoon. Furthermore, a technical snag at Dadar in the evening led to a few delays.
