Metrorail says the damage to eleven of it's train carriages could run into tens of millions of rand. Eight carriages were completely destroyed and three others partially damaged in a fire at the Kraaifontein station yesterday morning. The regional manager of Metrorail Western Cape, Richard Walker, says they are now awaiting an assessment from the loss adjusters, in order to determine an exact amount. The rail service has lost in excess of 70 carriages over the past two years due to vandalism. Sakina Kamwendo speaks to Richard Walker
