Two Trains
Trains travel from Foodletown to Myerville all day, always on the same track, always going nonstop and at the same speed. The noon train took 80 minutes to complete the trip, but the 4 PM train took an hour and 20 minutes. Why?

Ok. Just got some Masonic Money Clips. Will try to get a picture to post. I have 5 of them. I will post a total of 5 riddles here. The person to answer the riddle correctly first, wins a money clip. The next riddle will be posted after the first one is answered correctly.

It's the same train, traveling at the same speed, around the same track. 80 Minutes being equal in time to 1 hour 20 Minutes. The same train makes the trek 12:00-1:20 ; 1:20-2:40 ; 2:40-4:00 ; 4:00-5:20. It's the same train, therefore it takes the same time 80 Minutes or 1 hour 20 Minutes. as stated.
