sudhirgoa~ 9366 blog poststraveled in the AC Chair Car of this train on 26th February between Madgaon and Kundapura.
Seating: It was a pleasant surprise to find that the seating formation was 2 X 3 . If I remember right most AC Chair cars have 3 X 3 formation. Because of this I found the journey very comfortable. We were in seats 33-34 which were the seats in the middle of the coach which has a long table in front and two rows face each other. I think the other seats which are there in these rows are 31,32, 35,36,37, 38, 39 and 40 (not sure of the numbers). So in case you want a table in front of you and wand extra legroom aim...

Garib Rath and Yuva AC sittings are 3X3. Normal CCs are 2x3 only. Whether it is Shatabdi or Tapovan or Steel Exp or Taj Express. All normal CCs are 2X3.
This train DOES NOT overtake 56641. 56641 runs waaaaaay ahead of 22635. However, 22635 gets a top notch run after Kumta, all the way upto MAJN owing to a clear line ahead.
CC coach is a seasonal affair on this train. Gets added and removed intermittently. This is the third time it is being removed.
22635 gets good occupancy since it is the last train towards Mangaluru on weekdays.(On Sundays, thee is the Purna Express). The next train being Mangala, which gets delayed almost always.

I traveled, like I mentioned, on 26th February. On that day 56641 must have been late and therefore, there was an overtaking.
Very nice report Sudhir. I remember there is a good PF side Veg restaurant at MAO and has different options like Snacks,Coffee/Tea..It is always crowded.As you said,instead of depending on onboard catering, better to buy stuff here.
