The trains carry the trees through Grand Central Station. So the trains are heavier.

I believe the trains is the correct answer. US currency is made of a rag based paper using linen so there isn't as much paper pulp in money.
I'm going to take a stab at where the question came from and guess the "where's george?" website?

the answer is both way the same, both weigh nothing. US currency is cloth, not paper, so no trees are cut down. Also, no trains pass through Grand Central Station, they go in to Grand Central Terminal, and they don't go through, Grand Central Terminal is the last stop. Riddle is from "Inside Man"

The trains weigh more...US currency isn't made from trees (or paper). US currency is a kind of fabric, right? And as far as where you got the riddle, did you make it up?

TRICK question! ... in psychology, there is no superb suited answer - in simple terms comments - some artwork extra suited than others My answer is: by using fact it replaced right into a Saturday (Wednesday + 3 days = Saturday) playstation : replaced into it a twin sister? did the sis pass out with the guy, pretending to be her? replaced into the dad loss of life of maximum cancers relavant to the story? or how's this for serial killer mentality. He dad had a daughter he in no way instructed the girl approximately. That 'sister' replaced into green with envy approximately being abandoned and had a lot of psych probs, yet nonetheless could not forgive her dad. The 'sister' killed her dad with maximum cancers and hormone injection so he could go through. ... and that's the psycho section (Norman Bates, eay your heart out) Sis ended up getting a intercourse replace and got here to the funeral. by using fact of this there replaced right into a lot of an affinity between the two, and whilst the girl found out - ~BLAM~

10 points dude, you got it from Inside Man
Grand Central Station is not where the trains pass.
It`s a trick question.

Since I don't know I'll have to guess. I will say the trees and that you got the riddle from the U.S. Mint.
