At 05:30 hours on Friday, the rear pantograph on an 8 car tangara damaged the overhead
between Como bridge and Mortdale.  Busses replaced trains between Sutherland and
Hurstville, but due to the many road closures from the bushfires, the busses were very
badly delayed.  Single line working was introduced over the down main line to get some
South Coast trains through.  Trains seem to have started running normally around 10:00.
