[PHOTOS] Desperate father throws himself, his wife and baby onto rail tracks

Shocking moment desperate father throws himself, his wife and baby onto rail tracks in Hungary after realising their ‘train to Austria’ is actually taking them to a refugee camp.

Having finally been allowed to leave Budapest on board trains bound for western Europe after a tense two day stand off with police, hundreds of refugees now face further frustration and delays after their train was halted in the nearby town of Bicske and all those on board ordered off.
Hungarian police officers wearing protective helmets and carrying truncheons demanded the refugees make their way to a migrant holding centre in the town – leading to clashes with those desperate to start a new life in western Europe.
In one particularly harrowing sequence of images a father overcome with emotion tries desperately to protect his wife and child from being taken away – lying down on the tracks in protest before officers dragged them away for their own safety.

Earlier, hundreds of desperate migrants poured into Budapest’s main railway station this morning after Hungarian police withdrew following a two-day standoff, triggering chaotic scenes.
Crowds stormed a stationary train, cramming children through open windows in the belief they might travel west to Austria and Germany. Hungary’s main railway operator, however, said there would be no direct trains leaving for western Europe today.
Within a few hours a train carrying hundreds of migrants left the railway station, purportedly bound for Sopron on Hungary’s border with Austria.
