Neral-Matheran Toy Train Closures: Monsoon Safety Measures Announced

The Central Railway has announced a suspension of passenger services on the Neral-Aman Lodge section of the Neral-Matheran narrow gauge 'toy train' from June 8 to October 15. This precautionary measure is due to the monsoons, ensuring tourist safety from potential landslides.

Passenger operations on the Neral-Aman Lodge segment of the beloved Neral-Matheran 'toy train' will be suspended from June 8 to October 15 due to monsoon precautions, the Central Railway reported on Friday.

This iconic train, which ferries visitors to Matheran, a car-free hill station in Raigad district, will halt service for four months to ensure traveler security.

The railway's scenic 21km narrow gauge line, renowned for its picturesque views, will resume regular shuttle service between Matheran and Aman Lodge, near Dasturi point, with restricted vehicle access.
