It's very true. With the WLRT and hopefully within our lifetimes the SE and NC lines, this city will be insanely LRT-centric.

My understanding is that the majority of LRT lines in North America are "honour system" payment - how would differentiated fares even work on something like that? Maybe I'm mistaken here but I thought I read that statistic somewhere very recently.
