The country's first local AC train, running between Churchgate to Borivli, was flagged off by the state education minister Vinod Tawde. The first train, whose fare is 1.2 times that of a local's first class, was launched from Borivli. Earlier the train was supposed to run from Churchgate to Virar. But, the Western Railway curtailed the services at Borivli in the first week. Many people came for a ride in the country's first AC local train and commuters, especially women, were a happy lot. Some people, however, expressed their dissatisfaction over the steep prices.
