Each morning Tom catches the 6:42 train to London at his
local railway station. Recently he arrived at the platform to find a train
pulling away. Not knowing the exact time, he thought he might have just
missed his train. But after glancing at his watch (see diagram below) he
realised that, if his train was on time, he couldn't possibly have missed it.
Assuming that his
watch was correct, how did he know this?
