Baby run over by Train survives

This is amazing cctv footage of a baby whose pram falls of the platform onto the rails and get hits by an incoming train at Melbourne station. I'm glad the baby is fine but hope they charge the mother with neglect

Full details and footage HERE (Could be disturbing for some!)

That ground must have some gradient.

edit: just reread this and realised it didn't make full sense. I meant that the ground looked rather steep for the pram to run away so quickly.

I think the station owners should take some responsibility. The buggy seemed to accelerate to much for my liking.

Probably taken by the wind of the on coming train. Why should station owners take responsibility?, who would be stupid enough not to put the brakes on their stroller before letting go on a platform? and then wanna blame it on someone else?

Its heart breaking to watch. However I don't blame the mother or the station. Being a new Mom isn't easy and any one is prone to a slight laps. That pram moved so quickly. Just glad it turn out to be a happy ending. However the mother is now probably scared for life even though the infrant is OK. There's only one thought that goes through your mind when you see the clip...
