A question - A strange bird!

This is for all ye physists.. :biggrin:
OK I have a question for ya... if ya know the answer post..
if ya don't ... well don't :biggrin:
Ok here it goes..
Two trains on 2 tracks were moving opposite each other at a speed of 60km/h.. yes both at the same speed
Now, at a point in time they were 60km apart from each other...
At this point(I mean the same time when they were 60km from each other), a bird started to fly to and fro from the two trains...
It would fly to the first one and immediately it lands, go to the second one (Don't ask me.. I have no idea why a bird would behave like this :biggrin

Assuming it doesn't stop or get tired, how far would the bird have travelled when the two trains cross each other... if measured on a straight line? :biggrin:
You can take this to your Physics teacher.. :biggrin:
