The proposed sixth line on Western Railway (WR) has got another shot in the arm - during a mega meeting between Railway Minister Piyush Goyal and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, the latter assured railways of facilitating the acquisition of land the project requires - 3,000 sqm.

This means that once done, your local train will no longer have to stop in the middle of nowhere randomly to allow an express train to pass, because WR finally will get two dedicated lines for outstation trains and four lines for locals. This will not just boost national connectivity, but also improve local punctuality.
