Hmmm, so were there TWO 9137's (and two X32's) running at the same time?  The
return working of the Ponderosa (from Waurn Ponds) was delayed by locking away
for 8217/32 (which were of course hideously late acc. the 80km/h running), so
it wasn't through Geelong till  1558 with X32 solo (X32+T374 took it down) -
this train is also called 9137.

Steven, either the third engine was a different X, or your time is out by a
couple of hours.  I believe there *were* two 9137's, but I don't think there
were two X32's! :)

Cheers,
Craig.
