Two men are going along a track of rail in the opposite direction. One goods train crossed the first person in 20 sec. After 10 min the train crossed the other person who is coming in opposite direction in 18 sec. After the train has passed, when the two persons will meet?
Question doesn't make sense...but do the people get squashed? Also, if the people are going in the other direction...it doesn't say if they get picked up by the train, squashed by the train, or just keep walking

If the two men were going along a track of rail in the opposite direction, It could be that they were headed away from each other.....then they would never meet, unless the track was circular.
90 minutes plus or minus depending on when the 10 minutes starts and ends with respect to the relative positions of the train and the men as it passes them.
