Does it have to be X37? Another X from the same series would surely suffice, in which case sites such as Mark Bau's which has a section on the X-class:

Happy browsing.

Thanks for your help, cool link. But I meant the model X37 in VR colors of Austrains, any first run austrains X in VR livery will do, but I think X37 was the first run, and I was just wondering what it looked like. So if anyone out there in Railpage Australia™ land can be so kind as to post some detailed pics of their First run X in VR colors, it would be much appreciated.

Did a bit of "domain name changing" on the Austrains website and came across this. Scroll down the page and you'll find two shots of X37 in VR Blue.

As per the link X37 is the first second series X. The first series were 31 to 36 and had 567 motors (2nd and 3rd series had 645 motors) and smaller radiator openings than late series. Austrains have not modelled the first series nor wrongly numbered any into the first series.

Thanks for that info. But by saying the first run of X's, I meant the first run of X's from Austrains. All good, I have what I needed, thanks all.
