contents We explore the stationary densities and domain walls in the steady states of a pair of asymmetric exclusion processes (TASEP) antiparallelly coupled to two particle reservoirs without any spatial extent by using the model in Haldar et al., Phys. Rev. E {\bf 111}, 014154 (2025). We show that the model admits a pair of {\em delocalized} domain walls, which exist for some choices of the model parameters that define the effective entry and exit rates into the TASEP lanes. Surprisingly, in the parameter space spanned by these model parameters, the region corresponding to delocalized domain walls covers an {\em extended} region, in contrast to the delocalized domain walls that appear only along a line in the relevant parameter space of the other known variants of TASEP. This implies large fluctuations in the TASEP particle numbers even in the thermodynamic limit that can be found over a range of the control parameters. The corresponding phase diagrams in the plane of the control parameters have different topology from those for an open TASEP or other models with multiple TASEPs connected to two reservoirs.
