He carefully placed the baby across the train seat. But then cameras show the father walking away from the baby and stepping off the train.

Apparently, the dad thought he had enough time to leave the baby and smoke a cigarette on the platform.

But moments later the doors close and the train takes off sending the dad chasing after the train in a panic.
