    Maybe impossible. But I am sure whatever their shape they are always green coloured. Perhaps, a turnip, they would indeed be scary.

    *cowers terrified in the corner at the thought of any turnip, green or otherwise*

    I assume the correct answer was one's shadow? If so, here's another riddle. if not, just ignore this post

    What is that which goes with a car, comes with a car, is of no use to a car, and yet the car cannot go without it?

    A licence plate... The driver is useful to the car as he makes the car work, but a car has no use for a licence plate, yet without it a policeman will stop the car. Just a wild guess...

    Question

    Ok, my turn: On any train moving in one direction you can find something moving in the opposite direction. Who can tell me what it is?

    Nope... The train will create turbulence, but I am looking for something physical.

    Nope. Last time i saw a train pass, the track stayed firmly in place, but you are close.

    Keep trying.

    Clever, but no cigar. I am after a part of the actual train.

    A clue: You will not find this on road vehicles.
