I still cant believe this & its even more freaky because the train company announced a warning to everyone it could happen only 2 or 3 days ago... The video is in the link...
Numb with horror: the train just hit my baby
SHOCKING CCTV images reveal the traumatic moment when a mother feared the worst.
Her pram containing her six-month-old son had rolled out of her reach on Ashburton rail station platform - and on to the tracks where it was hit by a city-bound train.
Footage of Thursday's spine-chilling incident was released earlier. It shows that as the train approaches, the mum lets go for no more than two seconds to hitch up her trousers before getting on with her son. But the three-wheel pram instantly rolls away and over the platform edge - to the shrieking disbelief of the mum and other commuters.
She desperately races to the platform edge and reaches over, now placing herself in mortal danger. Seconds later the 250-tonne train smacks into the pram at 35km/h, missing her by centimetres - and rendering others on the platform numb with the shocking thought that they have surely just seen a baby die in front of its mum.
The distressed woman is dumbstruck for a few seconds - then races down the platform to the front of the train. Miraculously, her son was unhurt after being dragged 30m down the track under the front carriage of the train. He escaped with a bump on the head, and was discharged from the Royal Children's Hospital soon after arrival.
