Police are trying to trace
the woman and man
Police said the "frightening
incident" could have been deadly and are trying to trace her along with a
man who had left the buggy at the bottom of the stairs between two platforms
just beforehand.
The man left the pushchair
between two platforms
He had gone to help other family members just
as wind from the tunnel caught hold of the pushchair after a train left one of
the platforms at London's Goodge Street station.
Officers want to make sure
the youngster was not hurt in the fall which happened just before 7.30pm on
Wednesday, July 23. Images of the near-miss have just been released as part of
their public appeal.
It was blown onto the
tracks by wind from a tunnel
Chief Inspector Mark Lawrie said: "This
was a frightening incident, not just for the scale of the danger the child was
exposed to, but also because the woman then put her own life on the line by
going on to the tracks."
The moment it tipped onto
the line
He added: "This incident shows just how
much respect rail passengers should have for the network."
