The long wait of rail commuters to board a train on the harbour line from Andheri to Goregaon ended today with the inaugural run train service.
Railway Minister Piyush Goyal inaugurated the Andheri-Goregaon harbour line at an event held at the Goregaon station tonight.
Regular services are expected to start next week, a Railway official said.
"The harbour line will be further extended till Borivali," Goyal said, adding the Union government has undertaken Rs 54,777 crore-worth projects for improving the railway infrastructure in Mumbai.
