It was a girl and a boy.

Shaikh Tabassum, a resident of Ghatkopar in Mumbai, was travelling with her family by LTT (Mumbai)-Visakhapatnam Express when she went into labour, a Central Railway official said.

Upon getting information about the medical emergency, the train was halted at Kalyan, 51 km from Mumbai terminus, and a railway medical team attended the woman.

She gave birth inside the train. Afterwards the mother and the newborns were admitted to a local hospital.

All three were doing fine, the official said.
