A YOUNG rising actress was killed by a train while she was on her way to buy her brother a birthday present.

Jessica Jacobs, 17, tripped and fell on railway lines at Cheltenham railway station in Melbourne on May 10 and was struck by a train, family friend Jeff Joseph said today.

She was heading to buy her brother Adam a birthday present.

“The family have been quite traumatised by the accident and the loss of Jess; devastated would be better word, because she was such a vibrant person,” Mr Joseph told the Herald Sun.

Jessica, known as Jesse to her friends, was well known in the world of children's television, starring in Saddle Club, Worst Best Friends, Fergus McPhail and Holly's Heroes.

She also appeared in live productions including The Sound of Music with Bert Newton and Lisa McCune.

Mr Joseph said Jesse, a student at Sandringham Secondary College, was a tenacious, popular and bright girl.

Her funeral will be held tomorrow at the Holy Trinity Church in St Kilda.
