No change only reversal...

So does the same loco which brings it in MAS, takes it further till VSKP..

Yes...Loco Info also suggests as same.. From TVC to VSKP: WAP-4 Erode & From VSKP to SHM: WAP-4...

Sir, that is what I donot understand...as MAS is a terminal station, the loco which brings in the train, cannot further take it without reversing back....which will not be possible..so it has to be a new loco attached at the other end of train which takes it further....

There are facilities for locos to change tracks at terminals also.

Should have. Chennai being a dead end, loco reversal cannot happen. Only chance is rake reversal for which another loco is needed.

Loco reversal at MAS is possible even though it is a dead end station, but due to operational reasons they attach another loco to trains passing MAS.

Loco reversal is possible in MAS on all Platforms except 2A

No seen many a time at MAS the same loco will be reversed all platforms have that options of interlinking at near end,in such cases the train will not be pulled till the buffer end,they stop it bit before and loco after detached from rake goes a bit ahead and switches over adjacent track thru interlinking point and goes till end and comes back to attach to the rake again to resume onward journey...

Guess only 2A does n't have that option.

As per train page: SLR-HCPV-UR-B2-B1-A1-S11-S10-S9-S8-PC-S7-S6-S5-S4-S3-S2-S1-UR-SLR
