Great effort collating all this info.
Looking at the Video you attached here, I have a doubt regarding the info u provided under the head "#Pride"... i doubt that at Surat, "the railway platform is on the first floor of the railway station and the train reaches the platform through an inclined ramp"... I cud not see anythng of that sort in the video... I have also traveled many times between BCT-UJN-BCT.. cud not witness this ever.. Have u seen this by urself? (if not, can you provide the source?)
