CCTV footage of the incident shows the railway cop frantically gesturing to the woman to go back as a train can be heard approaching. But the elderly woman continues to walk across the track with the train hurtling even closer.</p>
<p>
In a last split-second lunge the courageous railway cop lifts the woman off the track and falls back with the force just as the train speeds past.</p>
<p>
The video has been posted by the Railway authorities with the appeal that everyone should use the foot overbridge to  reach a platform and not walk across the tracks. </p>
