Detailed Solution

Apparent frequency is dependent on the velocity of the source and observer and is independent of the distance. Since the speed of the train is constant, frequency will be constant till the train crosses the observer. 

Once it crosses the observer, the frequency changes but again stays constant for the rest of the time.
