Indian Railways first train: Thane local passengers pen letter to Railway Minister Piyush Goyal
This comes after the plan for a World Transport Museum at CSMT has been put in cold storage. Thane’s passenger representatives have submitted a letter to Union Railway Minister Piyush Goyal on 12 April demanding the same. The letter states the local passenger associations have been demanding at least a steam engine to be installed at Thane station and requests for directions to the local railways (in this case Central Railway) for the same

Passenger associations claim that despite Thane holding historical relevance for Indian Railways, it remains in a poor condition. (Representational image) source: YouTube
