  • Concept: The correct option is option B 'Adjective'. 
  • As, the train may be a noun here, within the given sentence. 
  • The word up describes or modifies its meaning; therefore, it's an adjective. 
  • The word late is additionally an adjective here. The word ‘is’ within the given sentence is that the verb.
  • The option A, C, D are completely wrong as up isn't a noun, adverb, or conjunction. 
  • A noun refers to a reputation, person, place, thing, or event.
  • An adverb may be a word or a phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective or a verb. 
  • A conjunction is employed to attach clauses or sentences.
  • Hence, option B is the correct answer.
