Baby on board: Boy born on high-speed train in France
Travellers on a high-speed rail service train in France experienced an unusual delay at a station at the weekend — while a fellow passenger gave birth to a baby boy, local media reported.
The pregnant woman began to feel contractions shortly after taking her seat on the Paris-Strasbourg train, run by German rail operator Deutsche Bahn.
She alerted staff and the train was held at the Lorraine TGV station in the eastern French town of Louvigny to allow a medical team on board which then delivered the baby, the Republicain Lorrain said.
