Summary:
"A regular local train halts for 15 seconds, while an AC local halts for 45-50 seconds at every station. The present AC rake has faced issues related to the door-closure system and leaks from the AC system. Railway authorities claim it's technically unfeasible to have both AC and non-AC bogies on a single local train. This news comes at a time, when coach manufacturers are ready to roll out more AC rakes for Mumbai. As per the schedule, the Integral Coach Factory in Chennai will send the second AC local having electrics of Medha Servo, to Mumbai in next four days..
