Blue Train
From 1948 to 1963, it served as the Blue Train spare and during this time- in October 1957- it was renumbered no. 795. From 1961 to 1963, this car actually worked on the Trans-Karroo Express while remaining a spare Blue Train duty. In 1963, the Blue Train was provided with two new lounge cars, thus releasing the old ones including spare No. 795. Since release from Trans-Karroo and Blue Train (spare) in 1963, it has been repainted in the standard red and grey livery and used on various special tour trains. Its use on special trains is naturally somewhat limited by demand, and it is not running much mileage in the latter years of its life. It was still available for service in March 1984.
