ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I took my family on the LRT this afternoon and unfortunately, it was a terrible experience. We were lucky to get a seat and the LRT was rather full but manageable... but people kept coming on stop after stop and I started to get protective of my 4 month old (she was in her infant carrier and people were leaning over her). By the time we got to central station it was absolutely jam packed and one girl got on and the doors closed before her mom could get on. Luckily, the doors opened again and the mom/stroller and 2 more kids got on.

We got off at Allen station with some strategic planning and communication and the fact that people are generally co-operative when babies are involved.

I'm glad to see that everyone is so interested in the LRT but this weekend could have benefited from 10 minute intervals...
