As measured from somone on the ground by the railroad track.

By the way, a clock on the ground by the railroad track is slower than
a clock on the train, as measured by someone on the train.

It's not at all difficult. Why do you suppose it is difficult?
What do you think the size of the slowing-down effect is for a typical
train speed, Robert?
You took a year of college classes. Surely you can do arithmetic.

The fastest clock would be at the center of gravity of the universe.
all other clocks are slower than that clock. t'=t applies to only two
frames of reference at a time. For instance, if you are talking about
the earth and the moon, time on a clock on the moon would be n' and
time on the earth would be t. If you are talking about the earth and
the sun, time on a clock on earth would be n', and time on the sun
would be t.

There would be a difference after about ten decimal places, I believe.

I don't know why you think it is .. but you clearly are unable to answer the
questions above.

Come on RB .. give it a shot instead of diverting

OK .. so RBWINN is now (finally) claiming there is an absolute frame,
S, in which the center of mass of the universe is at rest.

He is also claiming that clocks in motion relative to that absolute
frame the will run slow.

Q1: Does EVERYTHING in motion relative to that frame run slow, or only
some clocks?

Q2: Are clock on earth all running slow then?

Q3: If time is the same everywhere (as RBWINN agreed is the case due
to t'=t) then why not just set all clocks to show the time t? Then
there is no slow clocks and Gallilean transforms apply.
