Two years after the Central Railway first launched the iconic double-decker train between Mumbai and Madgaon, it has decided to suspend the service due to low patronage. The train, which was introduced in December 2015, was the only AC double-decker train with the CR, and plied on the scenic Konkan Railway route.
