Statement : As many as ten coaches of a passenger train have derailed and blocked both pairs of the railway tracks.

Courses of Action :
I. The railway authorities should immediately send men and equipment to the spot to clear the railway tracks.
II. All the trains running in both the directions should be diverted to other routes.

Statement : As many as ten coaches of a passenger train have derailed and blocked both pairs of the railway tracks.

Courses of Action :
I. The railway authorities should immediately send men and equipment to the spot to clear the railway tracks.
II. All the trains running in both the directions should be diverted to other routes.
Correct Answer Both I and II follow

The situation demands first diverting other trains to different routes so as to avert any accident, and then clearing the tracks as soon as possible. Thus, both the courses follow.

There is only one rail track between stations A and B on a railway line. One hour after the northbound superfast train N leaves station A for station B, the southbound passenger train S reaches station A from station B. The speed of superfast train is twice that of express train E, while the speed of passenger train S is half of that of train E. On some one day train N leaves from station A to station B 20 minutes late than its usual schedule. Both Train N and Train S have increased their speed to maintain the schedule as per the table. If the superfast train doubles its speed, then what should be the ratio (approximately) of the speed of the passenger train to the speed of the superfast train so that the passenger train reaches the station on that day at the exact scheduled time.
A, B, C, D, E, F and G are seven coaches. Each one among them is a coach of a different game. The games are Hockey, Cricket, Badminton, Tennis, Volleyball, Basketball and Football (not necessarily in the same order). Each of them trains on one of the seven days of the week from Monday to Sunday (not necessarily in the same order). No two coaches train on the same day of the week. C trains Badminton on Friday. B teaches Volleyball on the previous day of the day on which a coach trains Hockey. G trains on Sunday but does not train Cricket or Tennis. D trains Basketball on the previous day of the day on which F trains. A trains Football on Tuesday. E does not train Tennis. On which day does F train?
A goods train and a passenger train are running in same distance with a speed in the ratio of 7 : 9. The driver of the goods train observed that the passenger train coming from backward difference and crossed his train completely in 80 sec whereas a passenger on the passenger train observed that he crossed the goods train in 55 sec; Find the ratio of their length?
Each question presents a situation and asks you to make a judgement regarding that particular circumstance. Choose an answer based on given information. Three friends are waiting for a train on the railway station. Suddenly, a train passes by and each of them tries to remember the train number of the train written on each of the coaches. The train number was a 5-digit number. All must agree in order to confirm the digit of train number. 1. All three agrees that all the digits of the train number was different. 2. All three agrees that the difference of 3rd and 5th digit from left is equal to the 4th digit from the left. 3. All three agrees that the 1st digit was 1. 4. All three agrees that the 2nd digit was an even prime number. Which of the following would be most likely the train number?
Due to the technical snag in the signal system two trains start approaching each other on the same track from two different stations, 240 km away each other. When the train starts a bird also starts moving to and fro between the two trains at 60 kmph touching each train each time. The bird initially sitting on the top of the engine of one of the trains and it moves so till these trains collide. If these trains collide one and half hour after start, then how many kilometers bird travels till the time of collision of trains?
A train travelling at 54 km/hr crosses a pole in x seconds. The train consists of an engine along with 5 coaches. Length of a train is 180 m. How many coaches are to be removed so that train crosses the pole in x/2 seconds (Assume that the length of the engine is equal to that of coaches)?
The question below is followed by two statements I and II. You have to determine whether the data given is sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of mathematics to choose the best possible answer. Train A departs at 9 : 20 am and train B departs at 10 : 50 am and they travel towards each other. After how much amount of time will the trains meet? I) Train A travels with a speed of 10 kmph and the difference between the speed of two trains is 6 kmph and both the trains are 160 km apart. II) Train B travels at a speed greater than Train A which travels with 10 kmph by 6kmph separated by a distance of 160 km.
Statement : There have been many instances of derailment of trains due to landslide in the hilly areas which caused loss of many lives. Courses of Action : I. The railway authority should arrange to deploy pilot engines before the movement of passenger trains in the hilly areas to alert the trains in case of any landslide. II. The railway authority should strengthen the hill slopes by putting iron meshes so that the loose boulders do not fall on the track.

In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. A few countries already use powerful electromagnets to build high-speed trains. P. Since maglev trains float in the air, there is no friction between the train and the track. Q. Maglev trains work on the principles of magnetism and float over a guideway. R. Maglev is the shortened form of magnetic levitation. S. These trains are called maglev trains. 6. This lack of friction and the aerodynamic design of these trains allow them to reach speeds of over 500 kilometers per hour.
