Actually , you got it wrong, Harry.
And it is such a simple problem. "G" is indeed correct, how would the
light go diagonally in the track frame? Moreover, why would the light
ray get inclined forward in the direction of the train motion?

Its very simple .. it HAS to be inclined forward in the track frame in order
to be vertical in the train frame.


Well, you may be in for a surprise, it is inclined backwards, not
forwards in the track frame. Harry here will be more than happy to
explain that to you (once he understands my explanation to him)
