The Mumbai Suburban Railway (Marathi: मुंबई उपनगरीय रेल्वे, romanized: Mumbaī Upanagarīya Relve) (colloquially called local trains or simply locals)[2] consists of exclusive inner suburban railway lines augmented by commuter rail on main lines serving outlying suburbs to serve the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Spread over 390 kilometres (240 mi),[3] the suburban railway operates 2,342 train services and carries more than 7.5 million commuters daily.
The daily commuters constitute around 40% of the daily commuters of Indian Railways.[4][5] By annual ridership (2.64 billion), the Mumbai Suburban Railway is one of the busiest commuter rail systems in the world.[6][7][8][9] Trains run from 04:00 until 01:00, and some trains also run up to 02:30 or 03:00. It is the first suburban rail network in India.
