Commuting by train is a necessity for most Cape Town workers. The city geography and history of forced separation of the races during apartheid means that most black and colored people live in the outskirts of the city, and commute in to the city center, which is only accessible from one direction (due to the ocean and mountain). Beset by failures, theft, and crime, it is a struggling state owned enterprise.
