A local train mistakenly diverted onto an incorrect route due to a signal error at Mumbai's CSMT station on Tuesday afternoon, disrupting services on the Central Railway's main line.
Officials report the error led a Badlapur train to the wrong platform, halting near another train but averting a collision.
Central Railway's spokesperson, Swapnil Nila, confirmed that operations resumed after reversing the train, though platforms five to seven experienced temporary halts. This incident follows previous delays caused by a derailment near Thane.
