    Noon to 3 that is a 3 hour diffrence 40 miles in an hour and 60 miles in an hour that will be a 20mph difference.

    The distance that was traveled by the first train is 40

    The distance by the second is 60 it started 3 hours late

    40t=60

    40t=60180

    20t=180

    t=9

    The second train will catch up at 9.00 pm
