MBTA worker saves 3-year-old’s stuffed animal from tracks

Once upon a time, a stuffed bunny named Nummy fell out of its owner’s arms onto the scary subway tracks in Boston. But a kind Orange Line operator stopped his very large train and returned Nummy to the little girl.

MBTA officials and the girl’s mother say this storybook scenario actually happened at rush hour Wednesday, on the outbound tracks at the Green Street station in Jamaica Plain.

Nice to read a little good news.

I was having a bad morning until read this. What a nice story! And the stuffed animal is really cute. Thanks.

A nice employee, granted, but if I were in a rush to head somewhere I'd be pissed.
