Sorry, pug, D&G already got it. It's words that can be typed with only one hand.

 

[Noldodan]

question: have we established that the trains are even moving TOWARD each other?

 

[Lovro]

Yes, I believe we have (I do hope so ).

Yep, look at D&G's picture:

A lil diagram for you, complete with trains!
Note: May be slightly out of proportion
Note 2: Train may/may not look like train. Do not panic. This is due to my limited art skills. It does not bare any impact whatsoever on the answer to this riddle.

Well, technically, all words can be typed with one hand. Still a good riddle though; I would have never figured it out.

About those trains...

Could it be that they are not colliding because they are passing the same spot at the same time of day, but on different days?

Or, a little more far-fetched, this is happening on the night when you go back from DST to ordinary time, so one comes in at 2:30 AM (DST), and then an hour later, it's still 2:30 AM (ordinary), and the next train comes by.

 

[Noldodan]

huh. that sounds possible... D&G?

 

[Lovro]

He said at the same time, regardless of the time, time system, zone or dimension.

Just... two trains... on the same track... on a collision course... not colliding...

Along with what Lovro said, that wouldn't match the diagram, and if they're going on the same track in opposite directions, they couldn't pass the same spot, because they would crash before that happens.

About the train thing:

Maybe one of these two reasons:

Reason one: The two trains are driving on the same tracks, but in different dimensions. The track is a multi dimension track, and train one is driving in dimension 1, and train two in dimension 2. Then the trains won't collide, they will just keep driving, until they reach a multi dimension station, where people can get on or off. Pretty logic huh. Perhaps some of you haven't heard of multi dimension tracks, but there's a lot of them where i come from.

Reason two: The trains are just driving around in DG's imagination, where ANYTHING may happen, but the trains can't collide, because DG say so.

Congratulations, Vraslosken . . . You've correctly answered the riddle!

Maybe some sort of diety picked up each train the second the met, to avoid collision

@ Cathy: Hey! Great job! Yep, same time, different days (told you your all gonna hate it...). You guys never asked me anything about the times/days, just always about the track and such. Makes you all feel kinda stupid, huh?

You can all sleep at night now, knowing the infamous train riddle has been solved.

Different dates are always different times!

By same time, I meant both at 3:00 PM, etc. I never specified it was the same day.

You're confusing time with time of day

Fred and Jim, two popular politicians, met at a club to discuss the overthrow of their party leader. They each ordered a vodka on the rocks. Jim downed his and ordered another. He then drank his second in a gulp and decided to wait before he ordered a third.

Meanwhile, Fred, who was sipping his drink, suddenly fell forward dead. Both men were setup for an assassination. Why did Fred die and Jim live?

George, Helen, and Steve are drinking coffee.
Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda.
Using logic, is Elizabeth drinking coffee or soda?

Edit: Added second riddle

1. The poision was in the Ice cubes

2. Coffee
