There are unverified claims that the name “Rutenga” is derived from corruption by local natives of what the
Rhodesian settlers supposedly called “Route Anchor” given its central position to access South Africa and Mozambique. These claims are unlikely to be true as there are records of usage of the
39:
name “Rutenga” before the completion of the
Rutenga-Beitbridge railway in 1974. There is also no known historical or modern-day usage of the term “Route Anchor” in Rhodesian or Zimbabwean railway history.
