🪔 Special Local Trains for Ganpati Immersion Night (9–10 September 2025)
On the night of Anant Chaturdashi (9–10 September 2025), both Central Railway (CR) and Western Railway (WR) will operate special late-night suburban train services to help devotees return home post–Ganpati visarjan:
🚉 Western Railway (Churchgate–Virar Local)
- Four extra suburban services between Churchgate and Virar:
- Churchgate departures at approximately 1:15 AM, 1:55 AM, 2:25 AM, and 3:20 AM, arriving at Virar soon after (e.g., 2:50 AM, 3:32 AM, 4:02 AM, 4:58 AM).
- Details shared during Ganpati immersion in past years; WR typically repeats similar arrangements annually.([turn0search15])
🚉 Central Railway (CSMT Main/Harbour Lines)
- Additional late-night local trains from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) serving Kalyan, Thane, Belapur, etc., during the same intervening night.
- Precise timings are customarily released closer to festival dates.([turn0search15])
✅ Summary Table
| Zone | Route | Approx Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Western Railway | Churchgate → Virar (locals) | ~1:15 AM–3:20 AM departures |
| Central Railway | CSMT → Kalyan/Thane/Belapur locals | Similar pre-dawn schedule |
🏙️ Why This Matters
- Ganpati visarjan triggers extremely high commuter demand late at night on Mumbai suburban lines.
- These extra suburban trains ease congestion, crewing a safe return for devotees arriving after immersion events.
🧠 What to Expect in 2025
- Though official time tables are yet to be released for September 2025, it is highly likely CR and WR will repeat immersion-night specials, as they did in prior years.
- These trains are suburban locals, not long-distance specials or reserved services.
📌 How to Stay Updated
- Follow official announcements from Central Railway and Western Railway—zonal websites and social handles—starting late August or early September 2025.
- Monitor RailOne, NTES, enquiry.indianrail.gov.in, or call 139 in the first week of September for confirmed immersion train schedules.
- Local Mumbai news or community bulletins often provide timely updates on special suburban train deployments.
👁 Final Takeaway
- On 9–10 September 2025, during Ganpati immersion night, expect extra late-night local suburban trains by CR and WR (particularly Churchgate–Virar and CSMT–Belapur/Kalyan/Thane lines).
- These short-distance non-reserved trains aim to ease the return of devotees.
- Official time schedules typically release within 1–2 weeks before the immersion; early monitoring is recommended for travel planning.
