Let original speed of the train be 'x' km/h

Time =  \frac{Distance}{Speed}

 \frac{63}{x} +  \frac{72}{x + 6} = 3

 \frac{63(x+6) + 72x}{x^2 + 6x} = 3

 \frac{63x + 378 + 72x}{x^2 + 6x} = 3

 \frac{135x+378}{x^2 + 6} = 3

3x^2 + 18x = 135x + 378

3x^2 + 18x - 135x - 378 = 0

3x^2 - 117x - 378 = 0

Dive throughout by 3,

x^2 - 39x - 126 = 0

By solving the quadratic equation, you get

x = 42 km/h
