Just two minutes to save man on train tracks A trainee nurse who jumped on to train tracks to save a man who had fallen thought she had six minutes until the next train arrived, when in fact she had only two. Kay Seymour was waiting for her train to TAFE at Wooloowin station on Thursday morning when she noticed a man walk past who looked confused. She was plugging her earphones in to listen to a lecture when she noticed the 56-year-old man was on the train tracks and yelling at him "sir, sir you need to get up." "He wasn't responding so I jumped down on to the tracks," she said. I thought I could lift him, I couldn't. ..."I actually thought it was six minutes until the next train." Ms Seymour jumped on to the tracks at 8.02am and the Doomben to Cleveland train was due at the station at 8.04am. As she jumped on to the tracks Ms Seymour said she was worrying about whether she would get fined or not and kept checking for a train as she tried to get the man to stand up. A quick thinking Queensland Rail employee, Jill Lyten, witnessed the whole incident and rang the emergency number on the back of her work ID card, telling controllers to stop the oncoming train.

She brushed off suggestions she was a hero though saying people should always be vigilant about people who look confused and not just assume they are drunk as it could be any number of conditions. "I was just in the right place at the right time," the mother-of-three said. If I didn't jump down someone else would have. I'd like to think if I was in a confused state someone would help me. QR acting chief executive Jim Benstead said Ms Seymour had acted "naturally, instinctively and bravely" when she saved the man's life. Though when asked if she should get a year of free train travel he laughed and said to take it up with the state government. Mr Benstead said QR decided to publicise her heroic actions to make commuters aware of the emergency call button which is at all Brisbane train stations.
