Megat, S2 train is different from other trains. Passengers don't take their seats according to their tickets. In other word, they take seats randomly. It's just like taking the subway. I personally think that you need not buy the ticket after you arrive. If you can't get down to take the train, the ticket is useless. By the way, you can't make sure that you can be the first one to board the train to find a seat.
