The exterior design is great. The interior is overkill for a heavy duty LRV. Those would need extensive modification inside to be viable on our streets.

We wanted this way. Its a follow up to what taking place on Queens Quay.I noticed with the new streetcar lines on Cherry and Queens Quay that they're building them to one side of the road rather down the middle. What's the thinking behind this? Is that how they'll do the Eglinton LRT?
Side of the street makes for tighter turns in some directions where lines connect. Cherry-King works presumably because they intersect at an angle.
Wroclaw is pronounced "Vrotswahf" not "Breslau" and definitely not "rock law" or "war claw." Breslau is between Kitchener and Guelph.
Here is the correct pronunciation of Wroclaw: http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Pl-Wrocław.ogg
Who mentioned Breslau? Breslau is the German name for the (now) Polish city of Wroclaw.Wroclaw is pronounced "Vrotswahf" not "Breslau" and definitely not "rock law" or "war claw."
And like most town in the area was named for a German town. In this case, the German town of Breslau - which the Poles call Wroclaw.Breslau is between Kitchener and Guelph.
