He says,"The train was late".

Answer:

*The given question is direct speech,declarative sentence.

*So we have to follow the declarative rules.

*If the reporting verb is in present tense or future tense,the tense of the reported speech cannot be changed. Here "says"-present tense. So we can not change the tense of the reported speech.
