This is the dramatic moment a child in her school uniform risks her life by skipping across Tube tracks.

Shocked commuters look on as the girl narrowly misses the power rail carrying 630 volts and seem oblivious to the danger of any oncoming trains.

Clutching a mobile in her right hand and carrying her coat across the left arm, the schoolgirl made the dash between platforms at Latimer Road station yesterday.

One passenger captured the moment on his own mobile and alerted London Underground (LU) about what was happening and to stop approaching trains.
Hasn't she noticed the blinding blue flashes from the conductor rail as trains approach?
Wouldn't that be a clue that there might be an element of danger involved?
I despair.
