A girl allegedly raped "a jillion times" by a man in train toilets told her mum it "could be fun" to have boys' private parts in a shocking admission which prompted the parent to contact police.

The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was under 13 when she claims she was sexually assaulted several times by Daniel Russell, 38, on train journeys.

Giving evidence on Tuesday (November 5) the mum said her daughter told her it "could be fun" to have boys' privates' and be able to "swing it" about.

The girl, who has said she was three when the abuse started, went on to describe what boys' privates looked like.

When asked by her mum how she knew, the girl said she had seen the man's.

The court heard the mum went on to ask her daughter more about what had happened.

The girl told her mother that the man took her into the toilet on the train and "shows me his" and tells her "big girls know how to s**k it".

The woman said her daughter also told her the man showed her "videos on how to do it". 

The mum said she asked whether this was a one off.

But the girl said it happened "more than once".

The court has previously heard the girl, who referred to Russell as a “stinky bum bum head”, did the "gross" things she was asked to do after being threatened.

When in the cubicle he told her if she did not do the things he wanted her to do then he would "kill the babies" of a horse called Cookie she liked at an animal sanctuary.

She said: “I didn’t want them to die.”

Russell, of Tolhouse Street, Great Yarmouth, has denied two counts of rape of a child under 13. He has also pleaded not guilty to causing a child to watch a sexual act and making indecent images of children.

The trial continues.
