ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I understand the vast majority of people here are looking at LRT for its functional purpose only - development, "community building" (whatever that is), and so on - but I'm not. Smile I like it because it's a train, and I like trains. I don't really care about the other fluff but I keep my mouth shut and don't say anything. Smile I also know I'm in a minority.

I like trains too Smile

I’ve been thinking there should be a streetcar (or something like it) along the spur line since I came here for university. It’s only more recently I learned more about the non-train-fan reasons to built LRT and other fixed-track transit systems.
