Two trains 100 km apart moving towards each other at 10 km/h will collide
in 5 hours. A bumblebee travelling at 60 km/h will travel 300 kilometers
in that time. The set-up for the infinite series can be seen at the Two
Trains Puzzle page. For those that would like another classic puzzle, a train
shunting puzzle by Sam Loyd is shown below.
