Staff on the D2318 high-speed train from Shenzhen to Xiamen on January 31 gained an unexpected extra passenger when a woman went into labour en route.
Staff and passengers helped the woman by screening her off using cloth and the men were evacuated from the carriage. Staff then helped deliver the baby with the assistance of some female passengers who had experience of childbirth.
The passenger gave birth to a healthy baby girl and the train staff notified Zhangzhou train station and told them to send medical personnel to greet the train. The new mother was transferred to an ambulance and taken to hospital at around 15:16.
