Putting The Train Into Toilet Training

I’ve been working for the railway for decades now and thought I’d seen everything. Until today.

I was waiting for a train at the platform, with nothing on me to indicate I’m an employee, when a woman with a toddler approached me.

Woman: “Where are the loos?” *Toilets.*

Me: “Oh, just right there in the waiting room, see the sign?”

I point it out and it’s all of twenty metres away.

Woman: “Unacceptable.”

Then she picks up her kid and, I can’t believe I’m typing this, yanks down their trousers and pants and steps to the edge of the platform and holds her d*** kid over the edge to pee!

Me: “No! What the actual f*** are you doing?!”

She shouts back.

Woman: “You made me do this!”

I book it into the security office and tell them there’s a kid on the tracks and to stop traffic on the up main line.

Cue an immediate radio to control, and the line gets shut down, and I’m followed by two police officers back to the platform. This has taken less than a minute. They wait for her to finish (if she dropped the kid, it’s a LONG way down to the tracks) and dress the kid before telling her she’s under arrest.

She was shouting about getting a ticket refund and compensation as they led her away.
