It is exciting to note from a report in this paper that the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) railway station is to go back to a 1930s look. The station is being remodelled on those lines in an effort to keep alive its old-world charm.

The station, on UNESCO's World Heritage List, is symbolic of the city, and the fact that there are efforts to preserve the heritage look is occasion enough for all to celebrate. People must know that the iconic Mumbai Marathon's 42 km course finishes opposite the CSMT station precisely for this reason. When the race began, the organisers wanted to showcase Mumbai to the world. What better spot than the landmark CSMT they thought?
