Two women got caught in a heated altercation on a crowded train surrounded by families on their way back from Sydney’s Royal Easter Show.
Video appeared to show the women in a shouting match, tussling and pointing at each other on the packed train returning from Sydney Olympic Park on Saturday.
Their fight seemed to have started after one of the women, a brunette, allegedly touched the other woman’s child.
The second woman, who had black hair, and her male partner quickly began threatening the brunette woman who loudly told them both to ‘f*** off’.
Several other commuters and staff on the train tried putting an end to the fighting before one man finally managed to make those involved sit down and ‘shut up’.
It was all captured by a bystander, Ronnie, who filmed the incident and later uploaded it to TikTok.
‘Heading back from the Easter Show with sore feet, full hands, and even this,’ Ronnie wrote in the caption.
‘Sydney Olympic Park, you were a blast!’
Two women and a man got into a heated confrontation aboard a train leaving from Sydney’s Royal Easter Show on Saturday
In the footage the women can be seen initially pointing fingers at each other and shouting before the black-haired woman’s partner appeared to become furious at the brunette woman.
‘Touch my daughter. You take your own advice lady because if you touch my daughter again you’re going to know about it,’ the man shouted.
‘You’re picking on an autistic five-year-old, grow up,’ his partner added.
The brunette did not help her situation when she told the couple they should never have had children in the first place.
‘I shouldn’t have kids? Why? What’s your reasoning,’ the black-haired woman shouted.
‘This is why we don’t like immigrants in our country,’ she added.
The brunette woman went on to call the other woman a ‘crackhead’ before a member of the train’s staff told both to calm down.
‘Stop everyone, we’re trying to get home safely. Everyone be quiet, realx,’ they said.

The situation did not resolve however until a large man wearing a Bulldogs shirt cut in at the end.
‘There are women and children in this train so just sit down and shut up,’ he said.
One person who commented on the video claimed they knew what had happened in the lead-up to the confrontation.
‘I was on this carriage oh my gosh, the [black-haired] lady touched the [brunette] girl’s hair and smelt it and thought it was ok,’ the social media user wrote.
Other commenters similarly slammed the black-haired woman for her behaviour.
‘The immigrant card was so uncalled for,’ one woman wrote.
‘If the mum’s standing up for her kid then fair enough but what she should’ve done is removed herself from the situation and moved the kid away, not stay and make it worse,’ another said.
