It was about 22:30. The North Sydney supply got zapped by lightening.
There was one train at North Sydney platform (or was it Milsons Pt?),
one on the Bridge and another at Wynyard (saw this from the PC in
control room on 18/19).
A very packed out W579 (23:18 Mt. Vic) was transposed to stop
Burwood
Strathfield
Granville
Parramatta
Westmead
Seven Hills
Blacktown
Doonside
Rooty Hill
Mount Druitt (where 1/2 the train got off)
St Mary's
Werrington
Kingswood
Penrith
All to Mt. Vic.
Arrived at Penrith ~00:40 (normally 00:21)
