Central Railway’s first AC suburban local will be run by two women

Central Railway (CR) on Tuesday said its first air-conditioned (AC) suburban local will be operated by two motorwomen – Mumtaz Kazi and Manisha Maske.

“The two motorwomen will be trained along with 100 other employees to operate the new local, which will be functional by mid-January after trial runs. The staff who were trained on the currently-operational AC local of the Western Railway, were taught to operate the software, automatic closing doors and the AC system of the train,” said Shalabh Goel, CR’s divisional railway manager.
