Commuters – mostly office-goers – using the Trans-Harbour line are having a harrowing time as local train services between Thane and Panvel railway stations have been suspended following a technical snag near Ghansoli railway station this morning.

Being the first day of the week, commuters were highly inconvenienced as those travelling from now will have to go all the way to Kurla station and then change the train to take Harbour line trains to Panvel.

To ease the ordeal of standing in long queues to buy tickets in the morning peak hours, railway authorities have allowed passengers to travel via Kurla on the same ticket.
