Sometimes, birth has its privileges.

A baby born on a train in Portugal will receive free travel for life on the nation's railway company.

Wee baby Mariana was born to her 21-year-old Mother en route to Oporto, Portugal. She was born with the assistance of a male nurse in the restaurant car of the train, and then taken by ambulance to a hospital at an unscheduled stop in a nearby town.

The railway also sent the new Mom flowers. Both Mom and baby are doing well. Hopefully Mariana will grow up with a special zest for travel.
