Final answer:

The train that was originally scheduled to depart at 12:50 pm left one minute late due to maintenance, thus departing at 12:51 pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The train was scheduled to leave at 50 minutes past noon, which is 12:50 pm. However, because of maintenance, the train left one minute later than the scheduled time. Therefore, the train departed from the station at 12:51 pm.

To determine the time the train departed from the station, we need to consider the scheduled time and the delay. The train was scheduled to leave at 50 minutes past noon, which means it was supposed to depart at 12:50 PM. However, due to maintenance, it left one minute later than scheduled. Therefore, the train departed from the station at 12:51 PM.
