I always figured it was baked into the tiles and was there by design from the start.
There was that small case of the Spanish Flu that killed 12,000 Australians and 50-100 million worldwide from 1918-1920.
The main building was opened in 1910 and other platforms (and these tiles) were added over the next 10-15 years.
