You can think of this as one of the train being
stationary and the other train moving at the
difference of their speeds
It takes 2 of their train lengths for the tail of
the moving train to pass the head of the
stationary one.
Let = 1 train length in km

( note that seconds are converted to hrs )

km
Convert km to meters

The length of each train is 50 meters
Hope I got it!
