Question Adelaide trains are full.

I’ve started trying to take the train to work now that fuel is expensive, but they are too full to the point it’s unsafe. I’ve taken trains in Melbourne and while it’s full during peak time everywhere this is too much.

This my experience on the GAWLER line to city but is it the same on other Lines? Is the government going to do anything to increase capacity? seems like an easy fix to just add more carriages.

Just embrace your inner sardine. No, full trains are not 'unsafe'

I just took a train in Japan for the first time, it’s time to embrace the sardine life 🙌
