According to a press release issued by Shri Vineet Abhishek – Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, during the block period, all Up and Down Fast line trains will run o­n Slow lines between Borivali and Andheri stations.

The jumbo block doesn't mean a complete halt of local train operations on the route. It means that the up-and-down fast-line trains will run on slow lines between Borivali and Andheri stations. However, some suburban trains will remain cancelled during the block. A few trains between Borivali and Andheri station will be extended to Goregaon on the Harbour line.
