A public announcement that a passenger was trapped prompted about 40 people to join train officials to push the carriage, whose suspension system allows it to lean to either side
Dozens of Japanese train passengers pushed a 29-tonne train carriage away from the platform to free a woman who had fallen into the 20-centimetre gap between the train and platform during the busy morning rush hour
The unnamed woman in her 30s was then pulled out uninjured to applause from onlookers at Minami-Urawa station in Saitama, just north of Tokyo
After just an eight-minute delay, the train went on its way.
