My first travel in high speed 130 kmph fit Garib Rath of India, the Maharashtra Garib Rath Express (as announced at NZM), after experiencing 120 kmph DEE GR being my first GR travel.
Departure time of GR was 15:50 hrs from NZM and that of Rajdhani was 16:00 hrs.
Then for SC/MAS Duronto, 15:50 hrs wa given and GR was slowed down by 10 mins departing at 15:40 (as in this incident)
And

now finally, the departure time is 15:35 hrs, Duronto is 15:45 hrs and rajdhani 15:55 hrs.
Here you can see, slightly delayed GR doing parallel run with icf Chennai Rajdhani Express and Chhatisgarh Express arriving.
so, it was LGD WAP-7, GZB WAP-7 and AJNI WAP-7 doing parallel run.
GR was stopped by chain pulling for the late Mathura passengers.
You can also notice cattle on the rail tracks, eating the dirt over the same. Now, that Mathura will get opportunity to give passage to Gaatiman Express, such dirt and animals over the track would be fatal as I believe the cattle come over the tracks searching for thrown over food. so, it proves cleanliness is anyhow important for safety of train/passengers/animals as well as hygiene.
22110 NZM-LTT AC Express was not introduced that time, otherwise it would have been AC doing parallel run with GR, both bound for Mumbai via CR and WR respectively.

Awesome writeup!
I almost imagined the parallel run between SC Drnt and BDTS GR by simply reading your writeup. (When I used to go to SC frm NZM and MAS Raj already used to be placed at Pf 3, and SC Drnt and BDTS GR used to come parallely from yard at Pf 6 and 7 respectively)
I liked it!
Please keep on posting

That's possible only if GR is delayed slightly
Once GR and AC have done parallel at MTJ as per NTES
