A small dog had a narrow escape on a Derbyshire railway line - thanks to a high speed train crew.

Daisy, a west highland terrier, strayed on to track near Long Eaton just as a London train arrived at the station.

She disappeared underneath the train but the driver and train manager coaxed her out, then took her to the next stop, Loughborough.

There, station staff contacted police, and Daisy was eventually reunited with her owners.

They believe the dog must have wandered from their back garden near the station on Monday.
