The coach order seems to have been reversed in this train recently. The AC coaches are now just behind the engine i.e. at the far end when boarding at Chennai Central. Passengers travelling by AC coaches need to walk a long distance at Chennai Central and all stations beyond Dindigul Jn (as the rake is reversed there).

It is not clear if this is a temporary or permanent change.

If you want to travel till pollachi from chennai (or any stn before dindigul) in this train take the general ticket from dindigul for the post palani travel. Otherwise you will not get the time at any of the station for purchasing pollachi ticket. And in pollachi expecially officials are checking for the ticket less travel.

Is it possible to get an unreserved ticket for travel between Palani and Udumalaipettai / Pollachi at Chennai itself, so we can avoid having to book at DG?
