Something remarkable happened at Flinders Street Station tonight that restored my faith in humanity. A woman fell onto the tracks with her mobility scooter, suffering a head injury, and without hesitation, several bystanders jumped down to help her. The scene unfolded on Platform 9, where quick-thinking individuals transformed into heroes in an instant.

What struck me most wasn’t just the immediate response of those who jumped onto the tracks, but the coordinated effort of everyone involved. While some provided direct assistance - including one person who literally gave the shirt off his back to help stop the bleeding - others were alerting authorities and managing the emotional aftermath. A young woman showed incredible presence of mind by comforting and directing distressed families away from the scene.
