I think you're absolutely correct, I imagine this is why the speed is so low in areas where the LRT travels along the curb.  I sure wish they could have found better ways to deal with that interaction.

I wait to see if my expectation is correct that, by 2020, the ion trains will look like we picked them up at a scratch and dent sale...  Wink
