Yes that is what I saw at Glenferrie when I caught that train one day but
"Limited Express" was replaced with "Express Service" and after Belgrave they
had "only."Same att Camberwell as Glenferrie but less Camberwell in the list.
At Box Hill they had the stations listed and the double dots for stations the
train was not stopping at, but it had a double dot AFTER Belgrave I don't know
what that station the train wasn't stopping at was!
At Blackburn, Mitcham and Ringwood same as Glenferrie but Belgrave and Boronia
was missing. (Bad Programming)
