Thane: Train workers were a harried lot as first mansoon showers in the region disturbed the railway servicesbecause of different tangles.

Trains were running about at an interim of 45 minutes. No local trains landed at Diva, Mumbra and Kalwa stations for around 45 minutes since 7:45am, complained an authority.

Rural travelers were stranded at Diva, Dombivli.

Commuters at Diva tried to block the path of Panchavati express at Diva station.

A few passengers at Diva station pelted stones at passing trains after request to authorities to halt them at the station failed.

Railway officials said the problem surfaced due to snags reported at Thane and suburbs which was caused by water logging on the Mumbai stretch. Few trains couldn’t leave the Kurla carshed also due to water logging.
