'''Kandivali''' (Pronunciation: [[Help:IPA/Marathi|[kaːn̪d̪iʋəliː]]]; formerly '''Khandolee''', station code: '''KLE''') is a railway station on the Western line of the [[Mumbai Suburban Railway]] network. It serves the [[Kandivli]] neighbourhood of [[Mumbai]], India. All slow local trains temporarily halt between Kandivali and [[Borivali railway station|Borivali]] for a few seconds for signaling purposes, which commuters call an imaginary station named ''Thambevali''.<ref>https://topyaps.com/15-entertaining-amazing-facts-mumbai-local-trains/</ref>
In 2020, during the COVID-19 crisis, [[Children's Academy]] along with Project Mumbai undertook a beautification project for Kandivali railway station.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz59DIE7INY| title=Children's Academy, with Project Mumbai– Kandivali Railway Station Beautification Initiative - YouTube| website=[[YouTube]]}}</ref> Murals of Mandala art were drawn onto the walls of the station. Covid warriors were artistically portrayed on Platform 4.
