There is a good argument to be made for not needing seats in all coaches. The trips are short enough, and if the service remains reliable, one can stand for the short period it takes.
Yes I agree, the feeder bus system is not allowing persons to access the service. It is here where plenty could be done to integrate existing bus services with the Gautrain service.
Lastly, the trains should not just cut-off at about 20 :00 in the evening, but should switch to a longer cycle between trains. The trains should run 24 hours a day. This is the success of systems in the rest of the World. What does someone do if he finds it necessary to work late and misses that last train? I wonder how many persons are still using their own transport just because of this very simple reason.
