Commuters at an Australian railway station were waiting for a late-night train to take them home. Instead, a horse arrived.

Security footage shows a racehorse startling passengers as it trotted along a train platform. Officials said the runaway had bolted from its stables nearby. After 17 minutes, the horse’s trainer arrived to bring the bewildered animal to a trailer.
