Toronto is a pretty late adopter of LRT tech, so in that sense, others have done our structural groundwork for us. I rode my first articulated urban LRT vehicle in Europe in 1967. The pilot LRT project for Toronto didn't materialize til 2001. Sure we had a couple of bendy buses but surface LRT was not on the Toronto transit radar at all; not for all those decades.
LRT used to be called "streetcars". Toronto has had them for well over a century. There is also GO transit that started around 1967 but I guess that would best be described as HRT.
