The ride is interesting since you have to climb up a pass from Poona, and then down a steep slope down to the coast where Mumbai is located. I was told the train has 2 locomotives in case one breaks down.
After a while, being in the air conditioning wagon gets tiresome. I spent a long portion of the 4 hours trip on the platform between two wagon enjoying the scenary: the jungle, some monkeys peaking at the passing train, the train stations, the villages, etc... Leave a Comment Theme: Train

Bombay is well served by trains from all across the country. There are two major termini in Bombay, the Victoria Terminus (VT) and Bombay Central. The Bombay Rail Network is one of the most vast and comprehensive rail systems in the whole world. Its mind boggling to see the number of trains and passengers that use them on an every day basis. The local metro trains runs on three different routes and it connects every part of Bombay and its suburbs. Regional long distance trains operate out of Bombay Central, Victoria Terminus or Dadar. For more information on Indian Railways, fare, destination and availability, try the website listed in Contact.

I have found a site where you can give your point of departure and to where you go in Mumbai and its works out the train route for you even to telling you when to change trains and what train to take for your connection. its gives the route station to station for your whole route.. I found this very helpful in planning my train routes in Mumbai . Will include the web site

If you plan to stay in mumbai for long ( > 15-18 days ) you should take a rail pass which costs 106 Rs ~ 2.5$ . This allows you to travel freely over long distances . Although it gets very crowded trains are the fastest way to get around mumbai. Avoid peak hours ( 8 am - 10:30 am & 4pm - 6:30 pm ) if you can other wise take the first class ( which is much costlier ). There are two main lines the central and western. They both meet at Dadar . The central line runs from vt - kalyan , western from churchgate- virar. there is also a harbour line which runs to new bombay!!
Also outbound trains are p good , ie the madgaon express takes a scenic route to goa and gets you there in 5 hrs for only 200rs ~ 4.5 $
for more info contact railway offices at vt n churchgate resp. Leave a Comment Theme: Train
