I don't know if this question has been asked before, so asking... Why does this train have a loco change(from WDM-3A to WAP-4) at KZJ and not at SC?

This train is alloted with KZJ alcos,instead of change at SC they are changing a KZJ.
Any way those alcos have to go home shed for maintenance,and the WAP 4 which brings konark exp from BBS to CSTM from BZA will take CSTM-BBS from KZJ to BZA

Does SC has DLS ? I guess, it is there earlier and they have shifted it to KZJ right ? I guess, generally loco change takes place where there is a DLS right ?

MLY is nearer to SC which is 2 kms from SC...but MLY has less Alcos compared to KZJ
SCR has DLS in
BZA - Used for BZA div trains
GTL and GY both belongs to GTL div
MLY

to HYB and NED divisions
KZJ to SC division
And previously Konark used to have LSA with CSTM-MAS bound trains,as the links has changed after electrification of GTL--RU so konark runing with KZJ twins from KZJ to CSTM to and fro
