Rain hits train services in Mumbai

MUMBAI, MAY 18. Heavy pre- monsoon showers since last night affected normal life in the metropolis today, inundating low- lying areas and throwing suburban train schedules haywire.

Reduced crowds on trains due to Buddha Poornima holiday proved little solace for commuters as water-logging on the tracks at some places hit the services.

Suburban trains on the Harbour, Central and Western lines were running behind schedule, a railway spokesperson said.
