On Sunday morning, this 62-year old man was due to board from Wentworthville station, near Sydney. While he was waiting to get his ticket, his granddaughter’s pram started to slid towards the tracks. Before he could get grab it, it was already too late. The pram had rolled onto the tracks where a high-speed freight train was about to pass through. The man didn’t think twice and took a leap of faith.
