Baby Survived on Train Accident

This is the first I've heard of the story. How scary! I'm sure the mother is kicking herself ten different ways right now. Perfectly good mothers can make life altering mistakes like that, and I'm sure her entire life would have been ruined if her baby had died. I just don't know if a mother could come back from a tragedy like that. I'm glad the baby is okay.

Hey there, yes i read the news on the Sky News Website. Its a good piece of news for once, but to be fair the woman shouldn't have left the pram to near the edge in the first place.

That video is unbelievable...I remember (as most New Yorkers probably do) the story from three or four years ago about the guy who jumped on top of someone who had a seizure and fell on the subway tracks, and squashed him down between the tracks so that the train would pass above them. He saved his life and was all over the New York talk shows and news programs as a hero. I'm assuming the baby was so small that she fit into the same space.

Yes,i heard the news of the baby but i will say something that god has saved the life of the baby.

Hi cheenlly: this news was like one of the scariest moments i've ever watched on tv, poor mom and as you said i hope she have learnt the lesson, that was horrible, very traumatic i will else add.

I did see this & it was chilling, absolutely terrifying. It goes to show 1/2 a second can be a difference. Even though we don't use the train it is such a reminder never to let go of a ptram in any circumstance because it only takes a second for things to go horribly wrong:(

We have 3 children & our fair share of prams, for such light portable things this baby is very very very lucky to survive with just a bump.

I do think i had heard or read something about this. I think I do recall seeing it on the news. That was very scary and sickening to see the stroller go in front of the train like that. I hope the mother did learn her lesson but I do not think she should have the baby back if she is that irresponsible.

Yes, I heard about that story and I saw the news footage as well. I was really shocked and I'm surprised that the baby wasn't killed! In the video footage I noticed the mother talking on her mobile phone and then the pram slowly starts rolling forward away from her. I'm no expert on prams but why did she not put the brakes on at the rear of the wheels? I'm sure that this was a preventable incident. The train driver was amazing and he put the breaks on just in the nick of time, he was slowing down into the station anyhow. Both the mother and the train driver must have been severely traumatised by this event. Andrew

Yeh I read the story and saw the footage on news, it happened in Australia. It was amazing how the stroller just went away within a couple of seconds. Its a miracle that the babay survived, the train arrived a couple of seconds after the baby fell onto the track but the pram got pushed away. Its a good reminder for parents to remain vigilant around kids and strollers.

that was a site to see God was with that Baby, when I seen it on T.V. all I could say was Oh, My gosh. and the baby was alright just esscaped witha few injuries. the mother had to be crazy to not be watching the baby. I was relief when they said the baby was alright.
