A woman pregnant with triplets went into labor in the Berkeley BART station earlier this week, and a Berkeley High teacher helped with the delivery until the woman could be transported to a hospital. In her honor, The Top Ten Reasons To Give Birth At A BART Station:

10. Line to deliver baby in old station wagon was too long
9. For an act like this, people might give you spare change
8. Flower kiosk a major benefit for unprepared visitors
7. Free BART fare if you can hold them in long enough
6. AC Transit has a strict “no food, beverage, or umbilical cord” policy
5. Change machine now accepts $20s, $50s, and newborn babies
4. BART police double as midwives
3. Might as well deliver the baby where it was conceived
2. Station is cleaner than any Berkeley hospital
1. Wanted to prove something could arrive early at the station
