I still believe that the setting of the problem is correct and consistent with
traditional relativity analysis. Two events ("light enters train" and "light leaves
train") happen that are identifiable in either frame (otherwise any such analysis
should be abandoned) and we are to compare the distances between them, x and x',
and the time intervals between them, t and t'. I think the only reasonable
criticism of my solution should consist in offering a solution proving that x/t =
x'/t'. Einstein's theory is expected to be able to resolve problems as simple as
this one.
