KL2970, the train from Midi to AMS is Accessrail so doesn't ticket immediately (it may have done if FIM'd to KLM and you had a very competent KLM agent working on it).
I think part of the problem here is there are very few day flights to South Africa, and heaps of night flights. Plus being a Sunday, so things like Kigali or Durban connections don't work.
I don’t know but at 17:30 CET I tried to make a dummy booking and it worked. And you have a 06:15 flight and 08:00 flight on the BRU-AMS leg allowing to connect to the AMS-CPT.
