Oooops - gotta catch my train...
 
Woman, son learn the hard way why you need to be on the right platform at Kendall | Universal Hub

The MBTA reports an Attleboro woman and her son, almost 5, plunged to the tracks around 6 p.m. yesterday, and were taken to the hospital as a precaution, although they did not appear seriously hurt. According to the T, the woman told emergency responders she thought she could get onto the Alewife train in the station at the time from the southbound platform.
The action in the video starts around 0:30. It's the second time this year somebody wound up on Red Line tracks trying to get to a train on the other side of the station.
Huh?

Wow, that's pretty scary. It's good to see that people jumped down right away to help them. I wouldn't have been completely surprised if everyone just stood on the platform and watched without helping.
