Well we possibly mean the same thing. I am sorry english is not my native language. It was meant in a way compressed = wider.
(Because the distance that the train moves in a particular timeframe is higher when its speed is higher)
Compressing would mean squeezed together, so it more imply the 'v' is narrower
