RF at Chennai : Race with WAP-4 Intercity Express

As me and my parents started our journey from Vilivakkam to Chennai central by an EMU to catch the Lalbagh for our return trip to Bangalore... RPM WAP-4 with Coimbatore Chennai Intercity Express overtakes us.. Then my EMU bound to Chennai catches up and both of the trains come to halt... The race starts again with Intercity starting first but my EMU overtakes it with super Acceleration.. after passing the loco we get a surprise, Chennai Hubli Express was hauled by WAG-7 in WAP-4 shell..... Then we come to a halt, the WAP-4 with intercity overtakes and it also comes to halt further ahead of us... Then AJJ WAM-4 crosses us with Chennai Tirupati Express( it also had a AJJ WAG-5 which is used to avoid loco reversal at Renigunta).. Then we start agin and reach Basin bridge Jn where intercity was waiting for line clear.... We both then start from BBQ... We race on for some time and cross Patna Bangalore Sangamitra express led by KJM WDP-4, then my EMU slows down outside home signal as Intercity continues its journey towards Chennai Central......
