12876 has commercial stoppage at ALJN, Mandrak and Hathras ....long distance train shouldn't have such stoppages ....i remember 12876 has only one stop between ndls to cnb i.e. ALJN almost 10years back...why IR ruining this train by giving such stoppages...on last june i was on board in this train seriously may be i m wrong but i observe not even a single person boarded the train(not including GS) at Mandrak and Hathras even TTE told me "kbhi kbhi koi aa jata h"...even Hathras is ok but no need of MANDRAK.
