Cardiff City FC fan rescues child from under train

A Cardiff City fan has been hailed a hero after rescuing a toddler from train tracks while on his way to the New Year's Day match at Arsenal.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-s...wales-25579519

John Noctor was on a train to the Emirates Stadium when he saw a woman with a buggy struggling to board at Gospel Oak station in north London.
Her child fell down the gap between the train and platform but he managed to lift the toddler to safety.

Surely the train driver should have seen in any mirror on the platform that there was a problem occurring? Either that, or did the press report the facts as they Thought it should read, like they do these days?
