III and either I or II only


Let the speed of the train be 'x' m/sec.

Time taken to cross a signal pole =Length of trainSpeed of train

Time taken to cross a platform =(Length of train+Length of platform)Speed of the train

Length of train = 495 m

I and III give,27=495xx=49527m/s=553m/s.II and III give,54=2×495xx=99054m/s=553m/s.
