Re: Condemned cars

[ROY HOWARTH <rhowarth@ihug.com.au>]

The two burnt double-deck cars are C3905 and D4047. The driving trailer 
was one of the cars damaged in the Waterfall shunting accident of Dec, 
1994, and was awaiting repairs when the blaze happened. C3905 was a spare 
car that was at the wrong place at the wrong time....
