Mumbai is likely to get twin Vande Bharat Express trains starting from Mumbai's CSMT to Shirdi and another to Solapur. These will be the country’s 9th and 10th Vande Bharat Express trains and Maharashtra’s first set of intra-state destination trains.
 
While the flagging off of the trains has been proposed at CSMT station, the trains are being manufactured at Integral Coach Factory in Chennai and will arrive in Mumbai a few days before the inauguration date for the Ghat trials. While the programme has been proposed by the zonal railway, the actual event is yet to be confirmed.
 
While the CSMT-Shirdi Vande Bharat Express will save five to seven minutes of time over the regular, existing CSMT-Shirdi superfast train, the Solapur one would save over one hour during the journey as compared to the existing train.
