It was hauled by a WAP-1/LKO loco that day [though I have seen it with P-5 as well in the past ]. IR should speed up and double the ALD-AYC section and reduce it's stoppages [remove Khajurhat and Gaur atleast] to extend it to GKP.

Despite the stoppages and slow mps, this train is faster b/w BST-ALD than the VB which takes a longer V shaped route. If this train can be extended to GKP, it will probably be as fast as the VB and will offer a viable cheap alternative in...

A TB of this train [no proper large TB was there]. Train was quite empty, including SL coaches. The AC 2 Tier coach seemed locked and from outside, seemed as if not a single person had boarded it. For an intercity train like this[with a low average speed too], a AC Chair Car might make more sense than an expensive AC 2 Tier. There already exists an AC 3 Tier. The most popular class is 2nd Sitting in the train, though only a couple of coaches are devoted to it.

I know that NTES data is not accepted here for adding a train stoppage to the list. But if a train stoppage is listed at the very station, doesn't it make it official, considering it's the Railways that is doing it? For eg, I am attaching the latest time table effective this October from Babhnan rail station which clearly states that Amarnath Express and 11123/24 Mail stop in both directions at the station, unlike only once that is listed on the site.
