We're just going round in circles, there is a clear view down the line
I do not have a major issue with the guy's actions morally. I think most people in those situations would feel a moral obligation to try and help the woman in whatever way they can. I am not going to comment on whether disciplinary actions need to be taken as it depends on too many factors which we are not aware of.
What I do take exception to is your reasoning, your assertion that it was probably safe as they would have probably rescued her before any train arrives. Your analysis of the risks involved comes across as being overly simplistic and the potential difficulties that can be encountered is hugely underestimated.
Had your argument gone down the line of "it was a split-second decision and most people would have felt morally right to do what this guy did at that moment in time" then I would not have a problem with your reasons whatsoever.
