<>Trains arrive in Mumbai from all over India. The two major lines and one minor line serve different parts of the country. The Central line serves Southern India, Eastern India and parts of North India. The key station is Chattrapati Shivaji Terminus (formerly Victoria Terminus, known just as VT). The Western line connects to the  Western states of Gujarat, Rajasthan and some parts of North India. The main terminii are Mumbai Central and Bandra. The main reservation offices are at Churchgate, Mumbai Central and Bandra on the Western line and CST and Dadar on Central line (ie Churchgate and CST/ Victoria Terminus are not the same, also see map).

明信片上是The Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus (formerly Victoria Terminus), headquarters of the Central Railway, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 地图上是绿线终端。

The station building, built in 1888, is a magnificent and ethereal building designed in the Victorian Gothic style of architecture. The building exhibits a fusion of influences from Victorian Italianate Gothic Revival architecture and traditional Indian architecture. Internally, the wood carving, tiles, ornamental iron and brass railings, grills for the ticket offices, the balustrades for the grand staircases and other ornaments were the work of students at the Bombay School of Art. The station stands as an example of 19th century railway architectural marvels for its advanced structural and technical solutions.

The station was designed by Frederick William Stevens, a consulting architect in 1887-1888, for the princely sum of 16.14 lakhs. Stevens earned the commission to construct the station after a masterpiece watercolour sketch by draughtsman Axel Herman. After earning the commission, Stevens went on a ten-month trip to Europe to make a detailed study of the stations there. Victoria Terminus bears some resemblance to St Pancras station in London.

It took ten years to complete and was named "Victoria Terminus" in honour of the reigning Queen Victoria. In 1996, in response to demands by the Shiv Sena and in keeping with the policy of renaming locations with Indian names, the station was renamed by the state government after Chhatrapati Shivaji, a famed 17th century Maratha king.

邮票上是教堂门车站。地图上是橙线终端。</P>
<>教堂门（英语：Churchgate）是孟买南区的一个区域，以著名的教堂门车站著称。教堂门车站是孟买郊区铁路西部铁路的终点站，孟买最南面的一个车站，也是西部铁路的总部。教堂门车站得名于教堂和门。教堂是指18世纪位于同一条路上、大约500米远处的圣多马教堂。大门是指精确地址位于Flora喷泉处的古代大门，在16世纪作为孟买的南部边界。这座门后来在城市扩展时被拆除。( http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/教堂门) </P>
