On Wednesday, passengers on a Mombasa-bound Madaraka Express train witnessed a wonderful event when a woman received a newborn baby.
According to a Kenya Railways post on Twitter, the mom welcomed her kid with the assistance of a doctor who happened to be onboard and a passenger attendant.
Kenya Railways shared the news with images showing an attendant holding the baby.
“We are delighted to share a heartwarming story of a mother who welcomed her bundle of joy on board the Madaraka Express Passenger Service train to Mombasa,” Kenya Railways wrote.
