Harbour line services bagged a bargain that will offer more space for less speed when the new 12-car rakes are introduced on the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) — Panvel route. The Central Railway has said this addition of three more cars, which would increase the carrying capacity of trains by 33 per cent, will delay the services.
