*Were heavy movers of passengers. Not so much these days with the ongoing streetcar shortage.
I think the US focus too much on rail. Rail expansion in Canada is mostly for replacing overcrowded bus routes. If a place can't even support regular bus or BRT service, I don't see why waste money building light rail. Ultimately it's too much focus on marketing and image instead of function.
