Third leg in Crystal Empire "Aaaaaand damn it we're done"

Previously on The Amazing Race Equestria...
Teams travelled to canterlot, where they faced an uncomfortable roadblock
"Uhh"
"Aaaww s**t"
Applejack had a slight struggle with with rainbow that almost cost them the race
Vortex and River had some trouble at the detour, but were able to over come it, they re-united if you know what I me- -ahem- I mean vortex and river got back together, and tied first with their rivals spitfire and soarin
Applejack and Rainbow Dash were both hanging by a thread the whole leg, but thanks to an express pass, they were able to just squeeze in 7th place, despite getting a penalty.
The cakes were getting along great, however, luck just didn't swing in their favour after the athletes used the express pass
They, were eliminated.

River & Vortex and Spitfire & Soarin are first to depart at 9:00 am

The two teams opened their clue

Vortex read
"Make Your way by Train"

Spitfire read
"To the Crystal"

River read
"Empire,"

Soarin read
"And don't forget to find the train station with the Rainbow route marker"

They all read
"Warning, YIELD AHEAD"

"No way we're getting that yield!" River shouted as they ran out of the Castle and headed south

Spifire and Soaring however, went north

Octavia and Vinyl are 3rd to depart at 9:05 am
As they read the clue, all they did was nod, and run off

twilight and Shining are 4th to depart at 9:12 am

Twilight knew exactly which train station to go to and ran that direction.

Meanwhile the first team to arrive at a train station was Vortex and River, but wait! No route marker...

"okay what the hell?!" Vortex shouted while looking for the flag

"DAMN IT WE WENT TO THE WRONG SATION!"

Babs Seed and Apple Bloom are 5th to depart at 9:23, Sky and Pinkie are 6th to depart at 9:24

they each read the clue and dashed off

the first team that arrived at the right train station was spitfire and soarin, they checked the trains, there were three trains each 15 minutes apart. with their alliance team vinyl and Octavia and got the first train

Spitfire and Soarin & Vinyl and Octavia are both on the first train

rainbow dash and applejack are last to depart at 9:31

"Huff....huff.....we....made.....it....." Twilight said in exhaustion, she had been beside her brother the whole t,ime, and she was now completely out of breath

"I'm impressed twily" her B.B.B.F.F said.
Twilight was about to thank him, until she was cut off by....

"Well well well!" Rainbow dash said to her friend and her friend's brother

"Oh hi dashie!"

"Don't call me dashie twi!"

"I didn't say that"

Behind them was a pink pony running up to them along with her coltfriend

"Hi pinkie" rainbow dash said

"HELLO!"

the three teams stood in silence until they realized that a reunion would come later, and racing was now and they ran to choose their train

"yep, that one, thanks!" twilight said happily!

"anything for a pretty mare like yourself..." the train attendant said

"bebebe ef ef! I got the ticket's!"
"awesome! how good?"
"well the first train was already full, so i got the best seats for the second train! he seemed very happy to give them to me"
"i see..."

meanwhile rainbow dash went to get the tickets, but was cut off by applejack
"maybe ah should get them this time"
"hmph"
apple jack got the second train, pinkie got the third
Rainbow Dash and Apple Jack are second on second train
pinkie pie and sky skipper are 1st on 3rd train
apple bloom again had the same trouble, so they got the tickets late
Babs Seed And Apple Bloom are 2nd on 3rd train

later, the exes (or whatever they are now) arrived
"let's check it out" vortex said, "please don't let us be last....."
five minutes later....
