The empty rake upon reaching Mysuru Junction, the empty coaches will be opened for travellers. Thereafter, the rake will begin it's official journey from Mysuru Junction at time 16:30 as Mayiladuturai Express till Mayiladuturai, via KSR Bengaluru, Hosur, Dharmapuri, Salem, Erode, Karur, Tiruchirapalli etc.
