not all train require reversal while going from MMR to DD or vice versa....mmr has 2 approach lines while coming from DD and hence some trains require reversal while others dont ...ngp - pune , azad hind to name few never reverses directions at MMR while heading towards DD..
Admin..Please update..There is no loco reversal at manmad for this train..the train coming from bhusawal and going towards Aurangabad/nanded gets loco reversed at manmad..Trains coming from bhusawal and going towards Daund doesn't get loco reversal here..
Though trains coming from BSL side going towards DD do not need reversal at MMR but this train gets a reversal at MMR for faster engine changing process. While the electric engine is being removed at one end other end of the train is prepared to be attached by a diesel engine. The virtual junction at Ankai helps this trains to take DD route. I have posted the rail track diagram of the Manmad area. This train has a reversal at Manmad. Source of reversal info is that I have personally seen this.
No reversal at mmr , majority of times it takes straight route , only rarely it takes ankai bypass then reverse but its very rare
