Buggy With Baby In It Rolls Onto Melbourne Train Tracks (VIDEO)

Baby's Brush With Death After Pram Rolls Onto Train Tracks (VIDEO)

This is the terrifying moment a buggy rolls off a platform and onto the train tracks at a Melbourne station.

Mercifully, no trains were passing and the baby escaped with just a bump on his head and bruising to his face, the Sun said.

CCTV footage shows the pram rolling away from the mother, while an oblivious commuter checking his mobile phone strolls past.

The buggy then tips over the edge, with the five-month-old’s terrified mother leaping onto the tracks after it.

Metro Rail spokesman Daniel Hoare told Sky News: “It happened so quickly this incident. It just shows that you can’t look away from a pram.”

The September 2011 incident is believed to be one of three involving prams rolling off platforms last year, the Telegraph reported.

An identical accident in 2009 means new platforms are designed to slope away from the tracks.
