TRAIN STORY

IN THE EASTERN PART OF POLAND, A MAN WAS TRYING TO
CATCH A TRAIN. THE TRAIN WAS PULLING OUT OF THE
STATION AND HE RAN AFTER IT. HE CAUGHT ON WITH ONE
HAND, BUT WAS UNABLE TO PULL HIMSELF ON TO THE
BACK OF THE TRAIN. THE TRAIN WAS GATHERING SPEED
AND HE SHOUTED FOR HELP. A BOY CAME OUT OF THE CAR
AND HELPED HIM UP, THEN WENT BACK INSIDE (OR,
DISAPPEARED). WHEN THE MAN LOOKED FOR HIM TO THANK
HIM, HE COULDN'T FIND HIM. NOR HAD ANYONE ON THE
TRAIN SEEN HIM.
