I ride on what must be the busiest trains of the day and there has never been one person checking for tickets, even standing on the platform or something checking wouldn't cost that much. pay someone 20$/hour to stand there and check and you'd definitely get that money back in return. just put them at the 3 or 4 busiest platforms around the city.
all you need are turnstiles at the doors, i'm not sure why the city hasn't figured that out yet
