Carte Blanche: Patricia the train – WATCH

The 12 October episode of Carte Blanche tells the remarkable story of Patricia, a historic steam locomotive restored to its former glory after years of decay.

Once left to rust, the train’s revival took years of dedication, passion, and a small fortune from those determined to preserve a piece of South Africa’s railway heritage.

Now fully operational, Patricia once again roars down the tracks — carrying not just passengers, but the weight of history and nostalgia.

Carte Blanche is a South African investigative journalism television series that airs on M-Net every Sunday at 19:00.

Its first episode aired on 21 August 1988 and over the last 34-plus years has earned credibility among South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues, and current events.
