Then the wind resistance would be equal to the train travelling at 160mph.

I'm guessing thats' what you're getting at.

we see this question at least once a week in here, the rest of the question was going to be what direction is the smoke blowing wasnt it??
Unless the conductor was smoking his cigar or there was a brake sticking there wont be any smoke.
