This is the terrifying moment two 'XL Bully' dogs launch a crazed attack on a rail platform next to an oncoming train after a woman allegedly lost control of the beasts.

Footage taken at Stratford station in London shows a woman standing over a dog with white and light-brown fur. She appears to fit a harness onto the big dog, while she looks down the platform toward a second dog, who has white fur with large brown patches.

The second dog, which is on a lead, can be seen jumping up at a man and aggressively snapping at him.

The attack comes days before a government ban on the breeding, selling or owning of unlicensed XL Bullys due to six Britons being killed by the animals in just one year.

The suspected XL Bully attacks the man, who according to bystanders came to help the woman struggling to control her dogs.

Officers attended and two dogs have been taken to a private kennel whilst inquiries are ongoing.
