Passengers are advised to verify the latest train status before commencing their journey to avoid inconvenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Two Railway Lines Restored, Third Still Under Repair<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central Railway successfully restored the South East Down line and the Middle line between Karjat and Lonavala, allowing many train services to resume normal operations. However, restoration work on the third line, known as the South East Ghat section, is still in progress due to the challenging terrain and continued monsoon conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Railway engineers are working continuously to stabilise the affected area and ensure the safe movement of trains before reopening the remaining track. Safety inspections and infrastructure repairs remain the top priority before full services can resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Several Trains Cancelled, Diverted And Regulated<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As restoration continues, multiple express and passenger trains have either been cancelled, diverted through alternate routes, short-terminated, or rescheduled. Several Mumbai-Pune intercity services have also been affected, disrupting both daily commuters and long-distance travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central Railway has issued revised schedules and urged passengers to check the latest train timings through official railway platforms before beginning their journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monsoon Challenges Continue In Ghat Section<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Karjat-Lonavala ghat section is one of the most vulnerable railway stretches during the monsoon season. Heavy rainfall frequently causes landslides, falling rocks, and soil erosion, making restoration work both complex and time-consuming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Railway teams continue to monitor weather conditions while carrying out engineering work to minimise further disruptions and restore complete connectivity at the earliest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Normal Services Expected After Restoration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Railway authorities expect train operations to gradually return to normal once the remaining repair work is completed. Until then, passengers travelling on affected routes should stay informed about schedule changes and plan their journeys accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central Railway has extended train cancellations, diversions, and revised schedules until July 24 as restoration work continues in the landslide-affected Karjat-Lonavala ghat section. While two railway lines have resumed operations, the third remains under repair. Travellers should check updated train schedules before departure as authorities work to safely restore full rail connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/cities\/mumbai\/central-railway-removing-boulders-monkey-hill-thakurwadi-lonavala-karjat-section-8697448\/\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Central Railway has extended the cancellation, diversion, and regulation of several train services until July 24 as restoration work continues in the Karjat-Lonavala ghat section following multiple landslides triggered by heavy monsoon rains.
