Only the Queen car allows POP entrance on the back, even though the King car is apparently the busiest route in town. You are indeed in the gutter — King and Queen are streets in Toronto.

I confess I have no familiarity with the system there, but as an outsider, that sounds like a homosexual dig, mean the "queen" is taking it in the back door. Is that the root of the comment? Or am I just permanently in the gutter? Is there a “Queen car” too?

Clearly it's a case of demand: people aren't entering via the back door because they don't want to pay fare, they're doing it so they don't have to line up for ten minutes, only to get jammed up at the front because no one moves to the back of the damn streetcar. If anything, these people are helping the problem. Faster loading means fewer missed traffic lights and loading at the back means better passenger distribution along the streetcar. (my captcha for this comment is appropriately "tenses on") As a 504 King rider, this shit pisses me off.
