Spotted 12657 MAS-SBC Mail with an ICF rake today at KJM.. suprised to see it.. How many spare ICF rakes are being run currently for it?

Btw, It got trolled badly in JTJ-BWT section.. Got OT'ed by 12292 MAS-YPR weekly and Late running 12889 TATA-SMVB.. and also held at BYPL from 5:30AM till the time I post this.. Not sure if BNC works is the reason..
