ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I do prefer the seat set-up to our Ion, it's a little different, and has a few more 'private seats' than our trains (as in, people not facing on another as much). 

TTC streetcars don't make all stops, even in the LRT-like section. I agree it's unnecessary to press at Union, but generally the stop buttons are required.

The TTC vehicles are narrower than ours and only have doors on one side, which I think is a big part of why the vehicles have a different seating layout. No doors makes it a lot easier to avoid seats facing each other.
