Baby in stroller hit by train survives
Here is the security video:
Australia’s Herald Sun reports:
The near-miss happened at Ashburton station as a city-bound train pulled into the station just after 4pm yesterday.The baby was strapped into a three-wheeler pram that rolled forward and toppled on to the tracks.
The pram was carried 30 metres as the desperate driver tried to pull up the 250-tonne train. It ploughed into the pram at about 35km/h, dragging the child along beneath the front carriage.
Witnesses watched in horror, fearing the baby had no hope.
