Trivia
Ugander's name sounds exactly like the country 'Uganda'.


 * Despite the similar sounding name, both are pronounced differently to prevent this confusion by saying the end of his name as "der" instead of "da".

Ugander is the only Southern-type that escaped instead of being bought prior to 1955.

In real life, the "Greyhounds" were withdrawn from service between 1951 and 1963 and Ugander's real life counterpart was withdrawn in 1951, not 1935.


 * It appears that some T9s were being withdrawn by the Southern Railway (SR) 26 years early in this timeline
