As this train is non-stop between NDLS and CNB, and doesn't have a pantry car, better carry something to eat to be on the safer side.
I have witnessed it reaching CNB 12 in afternoon from NDLS due to fog, and many people were hungry, as train didn't stopped at any intermediate station.

My mother travelled in GS coach from LKO to Gonda. There is one GS coach only reserved for ladies behind SLR in the direction of loco bound for GKP. Also there is rpf in the coach so no men can enter this coach. This can be boon for single travelling ladies.

This train is going to make history by never reaching n time to GKP. I have reported its delayed running but Ind Rail is not interested. This is one of well paying train to Railway. Always overbooked, people sitting/sleeping on floor in SL. 3AC is also crowded. A person gets a confirm ticket and he carries two more person on same seat.
They charge SF for this train but runs like a passenger train. Usually 2 hr late in GKP. Any day of the year, winter or summer.
