Let t hours be the number of hours needed for the second train to catch up the first one.

Then the first train is  on the way (t+1) hours.

1. First train travels at a speed of 60 mph (t+1) hours and passes

60\cdot (t+1)\ m.

2. Second train travels at a speed of 70 mph t hours and passes

70\cdot t\ m.

Since two trains will meet, then

60\cdot (t+1)=70\cdot t,\\ \\60t+60=70t,\\ \\10t=60,\\ \\t=6\ hours.

Then they will meet at 7:00 p.m.

Answer: 7:00 p.m.
