People Online Marvelled At The Cycle Facility In Mumbai Metro
One user in the comments compared the metro's facilities to those of a local train and wrote, "Atleast in metro it's free to take cycle but in local train it would cost you around 200rs. Cycle should be encouraged in local train by adding one more coach just for cyclists. Would surely encourage lot of people I hope."
