Platfroms[edit]

Only one platform is mentioned on this station. There are always minimum two platforms. One for train to CST, one for train from CST. Two platform applies to most of the station on harbour line, because there are no fast trains. Usually four platforms are needed where there are fast trains or through trains are passing through.69.197.178.166 20:00, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

not clear on the meaning of the term # of platforms[edit]

I am not too sure on the exact def of the term - it could either mean the actual # of physical platforms, or the # of platforms numbered based on the number of tracks.

References corrected[edit]

I have deleted the reference #1 as the statement "Contrary to popular belief, the station is not named after a masjid (mosque) but a synagogue, the 300-year-old Gate of Mercy Synagogue near a once thriving Jewish neighbourhood, popularly known as Juni Masjid by locals" is not supported by this reference.

Juni Masjid[edit]

In the Marathi language, a mosque/masjid is known as masheed. A synagogue is never confused with a mosque. There are at least three mosques in the vicinity of Masjid railway station and each of them are locally referred to as masheed/masjid. Of these mosques, the oldest one, Sat Tad Masjid, predates the railway station by at least a century and abuts the railway station. The Gate of Mercy Synagogue is situated two lanes away from the railway station and is not referred to as Juni Masjid. Even Reference #2 cited for this statement does not provide a reference for this.--Nadeemkazi (talk) 16:01, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
