I was hoping to find a more efficient approach but what you suggested
did the trick. I traverse the polyline once from start to finish, at
each stage checking whether the current lat/lng is also a marker's
location - if it is then I store the distance as part of the marker
object. Then the animation is just a case of several more
GetPointAtDistance() calls, with the value of distance bounded by the
two markers.

Thank you for your help.
