The Western line of the Mumbai Suburban Railway is an Indian public transit system serving Mumbai Metropolitan Region, Maharashtra. It consists of 37 stations from Dahanu Road to Churchgate. It is operated by Western Railways (WR). The entire line is at grade. Trains are differentiated as slow and fast locals. Slow trains stop at all stations, while fast ones stop at main stations only and are preferable over longer distances. Trains usually start from and terminate at main stations. The section from Churchgate to Virar is a Quadruple track. An EMU car shed has been built between Nallasopara and Virar which is the largest car shed in both India and Asia. A repair shop for EMUs is situated at Mahalaxmi. There are also EMU car sheds at Mumbai Central and Kandivli. A new EMU car shed at Vangaon has been proposed to support the growing number of local trains to Dahanu Road after the quadrupling project is finished.
