A young woman allegedly pushed a stranger onto railway lines on the Gold Coast, leaving it to bystanders to pull him from the path of oncoming trains.

Police say the woman and another man argued with the 52-year-old at the Nerang railway station before pushing him onto the rails where he blacked out.

He suffered head and back injuries and had to be lifted off the tracks by several witnesses.
