Baby rides for free

       A baby girl was born on Monday on a high-speed train linking Paris and Brussels, the first such case since the Thalys rail service was created in 1996. The baby was delivered by two doctors and two nurses who were on board, as the train was travelling at around 300kph.The baby was born without complications, just before the train came to a halt in the Belgian capital, where fire services and an emergency medical team were waiting. Thalys chief Olivier Poitrenaud gave the newborn a life-time free rail pass.
