Hitachi destination rolls included East Doncaster (up the middle of the
Eastern Freeway according to the Street Directory), they also included
Coldstream and Deer Park West.

Comeng rolls have been blanked on the spot that had Holmesglen (drop the
passengers, run to Glen Waverley and Come Back???)

Sunbury has been seen as well, and Cragieburn was in there too.

Many of these ideas are from Governments (and employees) long gone..
