An eighteen-month-old girl was sitting in her buggy while a
man, thought to be her granddad, had his back turned and was looking at a
ticket machine.While his back is turned the horror slowly begins to unfold
as the little girl's buggy beings to roll away from him.
Still strapped in, the tot falls face first onto the tracks
at Diamond Creek Railway Station in Melbourne, Australia. When the man turns
around he immediately realizes what has happened, runs to the edge of the
platform and tries to jump down.Other commuters assist him and one woman and a man also get
onto the track to help him lift the girl and the buggy away from danger.Incredibly there were no trains passing at the time.One witness told Melbourne radio station 3AW: "The
child's head hit the steel rail and gave it a significant head injury around
the eye-socket."The child was taken to hospital where she is said to be in a
stable condition.
