Baby survives after falling under train

[Doomsday101]

A six-month-old baby had a miraculous escape after his stroller rolled off a railway station platform and into the path of an incoming train.

The incident, which happened Thursday at Ashburton railway station in Melbourne, Australia, was captured by CCTV.

The footage shows the baby's mother momentarily letting go of the stroller, which then rolls over the edge of the platform. Second later, a train pulls in to the station.

I hear you there! I can't imagine what that mother was feeling. She must still be freaked out!

Someone needs to send that baby a "More powerful than a locomotive" T-shirt.

They had apparently just started a safety campaign about strollers on the train platforms, too.

Talk about getting the message across. If that video won't burn it into your brain, nothing will.

i would have soiled myself and quite possibly would need some therapy after that.

I would be dead because I would have jumped in front of that train.
