Description
I missed the Garib Rath Express at Gurgaon to reach Jaipur and instead took Runicha with a general ticket till Ringas and a bus further to Jaipur. However, this ride gave me one of my most beautiful experiences on Indian Railways, a double stack intermodal freight ran parallel at 100 kmph on the Western DFC for almost 20 km from Nim ka Thana to Kanwat.

Train : 14087 Delhi Jn - Jaisalmer Runicha Express
Loco : Tughlakabad (TKD/DLTB) WDP4 #20031

Runicha arrived into Gurgaon almost half an hour late, although it had departed Delhi Jn on time. The double decker to Delhi Sarai Rohilla was gone, the Garib Rath crossed at Gurgaon itself. The next two trains to cross were the Jan Shatabdi and Vande Bharat from Ajmer. Unfortunately, our train was taken through the loop to overtake a double stack container freight, and Vande Bharat crossed meanwhile.

Post Rewari, the train was running parallel to the Western DFC tracks. A couple of crossings with high speed freight trains happened, but there wasn't any parallel action until we reached Nim ka Thana. As the DLTB WDP4 accelerated out of Nim ka Thana, a WDG4G caught up with us hauling a south bound Double Stack container freight.
