So if the trains are late then they burn down the trains. Next day its later because there is even less. Then they strike/protest. It happens every month. The Whole Soweto and other squatter camps has illegal electrical connections to their homes, when council disconnects it then they protest and burn down schools and police stations. Daily thing here.
