Georgia Varley dies in Liverpool railway station fall
A girl has died after falling between a carriage and the platform at a Liverpool railway station, apparently while running after a train.
Georgia Varley, 16, of Wallasey, Wirral, died at Liverpool James Street station late on Saturday night, British Transport Police (BTP) said.
Police believe she had been running to catch a train home which had some of her friends and family on board.
Some bystanders needed treatment for shock after witnessing her death.
About 40 passengers were on the platform at the time of the incident, which involved the 23:01 BST Merseyrail service to West Kirby.
It is thought Georgia had been on a night out.
'Sincerest sympathies'
A BTP spokesman said: "A 16-year-old girl from Wirral sadly died after it is believed she fell between the platform and a train at the station.
"Officers are keeping in close contact with the girl's family and friends and our thoughts remain with them at this difficult time."
A spokeswoman for the Northwest Ambulance Service said: "When our paramedics arrived they realised that there was nothing that could be done for the girl.
"They were able to treat some people nearby who witnessed the incident."
A spokesman for Merseyrail said the company was co-operating fully with a BTP investigation into what happened.
"Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the victim and we extend our sincerest sympathies to them."
