It's a fascinating concept when considering trends towards densification/urbanization and carbon reduction needs here and elsewhere.

The streetcar operates a bit differently from both the bus and MAX in that most people who ride those are forms of transportation are on it for a while until they reach their destination. The streetcar is more of a hop on and hop off service where most people only ride it for a few stations. Perhaps a better option might be to do a distance based fare similar to what other transit agencies do on their rail service. So maybe a two station hop is 50 cents, three stations is 75 cents, four is $1, etc...
