Absolutely even in its worst state, it got the job done for many. Expansion is tough now with how much the suburbs have sprawled but with ridership rising and city control on the table there’s a real chance to boost long term value.

343K Daily Train Trips by 2026: Cape Town’s Rail Comeback 🚆🇿🇦

I alternated between taking the central line and northern line for 5 years travelling from Bellville to Cape Town and boy do I have some stories to tell, was a wild ride with plenty of entertainment and thrills along the way 

It's great that they're getting this system back on track even when it was at its crappiest it still managed to get me to work i'd say 80% of the time. 

Only thing is expanding the network would be crazy expensive and since the suburbs have expanded so much over the years knowing the rail was going nowhere, it's kinda just stuck at the moment in terms of growing its value to the city.
