Solutions of the stationary travelling wave type are considered in draining layers of a viscous fluid. A one-parameter family of waves is studied that softly branches off into the upper branch of the neutral stability curve of the plane-parallel flow and goes over into a negative soliton (phase velocity \(c<3)\) as the wave number tends to zero. It is shown that this family is not unique: for small values of the parameter \(\delta\) characterizing the mass flow rate, a second and third family of waves branches off from it with half the period.
