<br />
This line is also a double line and therefore doesn't have any fast trains on it. Starts from separate platforms lie at the far east in {{rws|Thane}} runs parallel with [[Central line (Mumbai Suburban Railway)|Central Railway]] line with crossing over [[Thane creek]] till just before the [[Parsik Tunnel]] where the line turns downwards and runs till {{rws|Kopar Khairane}}. At {{rws|Turbhe}}, the line branches into two and both are runs parallel with [[Harbour line (Mumbai Suburban Railway)|Harbour line]]. The first line joins at [[Sanpada]] and terminates at [[Vashi]]. Whereas the second line joints at [[Juinagar]] and terminates at [[Panvel]].<br />
<br />
The stations of the Trans-Harbour line on the Navi Mumbai side are also well maintained and beautifully designed by [[CIDCO]]. Some of the IT offices are also above the stations which lie on this route.<br />
<br />

==History==<br />
The [[City and Industrial Development Corporation|City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra]] (CIDCO) was appointed as a New Town Development Authority in 1970. The government acquired land from 95 villages and handed over to CIDCO for the development of towns. To decongest the mother city, Mumbai, CIDCO developed 14 nodes in [[Navi Mumbai]]. The development of [[Navi Mumbai International Airport]] and 6 railway corridors in Navi Mumbai were meant for increasing connectivity between the towns, nodes and mega establishments. The major features of the rail corridor are direct access from residential to railway station by foot, convenient interchange facility from one corridor to another, double discharge platforms at every station, easy to follow routes and comfortable and pleasant journeys form the key features of the commuter railway system in Navi Mumbai.<br />
<br />
The line was freight-only from 1993 until 2004, when passenger service began.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/Mumbai/Trans-harbour-line-eases-rush-at-Kurla-and-Vashi/Article1-708126.aspx |title=Trans Harbour line eases rush at Kurla and Vashi |publisher=Hindustan Times |date=2011-06-11 |access-date=2012-11-07}}</ref> It was formally inaugurated on 9 November 2004 by Railway Minister [[Laloo Prasad Yadav]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_section.jsp?lang=0&id=0,6,1191,1192,1394,1396,1419 |title=Central railway official website |access-date=2017-11-17}}</ref><br />
