TRANSPORT Police are investigating after a Carnforth man apparently threw himself under a moving train at Lancaster Castle Station on Tuesday night.
The 48-year-old jumped under the slow moving train as it was shunted between platforms and the driver had to slam on the brakes.
The man then climbed from under the train and sat on the platform. He received only slight injuries but was taken to Royal Lancaster Infirmary.
A spokesman said: "It is believed at this stage to be an attempted suicide but we are continuing with our investigations."
