What was the travel complication Hemantpant faced when leaving for Shirdi, and how was it resolved?

During his initial journey to Shirdi, Hemantpant encountered a complication described in Chapter 2 as a 'fly in the first morsel.' He had bought a ticket only to Dadar, planning to catch the Manmad mail train from there. However, just as his train was leaving Bandra, a Muslim man entered and, upon learning Hemantpant's plan, informed him that the mail train did not stop at Dadar. He advised him to go all the way to Bori Bunder (CST) to catch the mail. Hemantpant notes that without this timely information, he would have missed his connection and his fickle mind might have created further issues.
