Child almost falls through missing train toilet floor.

If correct, clearly a serious oversight.

Child almost falls through floor of moving train in Devon - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-40555782

A small boy almost fell from a moving train carriage on to the track below because the toilet floor was missing.
His mother was able to catch him before he fell when she took him to the toilet on the Totnes Riverside to Buckfastleigh train in Devon.
Investigators said the floor had been removed for repairs to the carriage's brakes but had not been replaced.
South Devon Railway (SDR), which runs the steam train, said it is taking the investigation "extremely seriously".

I just looked down the list of threads and there was nothing obviously about this.
