Let s1 be the faster train's speed nd s2 be the slower train speed
Moving in opposite direction
(d1+d2)/(s1+s2) = t1
800/(s1+s2) = 10
s1+s2 = 80 --> (1)

Moving in same direction
(d2+d2)/(s1-s2) = t2
800/(s1-s2) = 20
s1 - s2 = 40 --> (2)
solving (1) nd (2)
2s1 = 120 ==> s1 = 60m
s2 = 20 m

Speed of faster train is 60 m/s

Abs : 60 m/s
