The difference in the time it takes a streetcar in Amsterdam vs. Toronto to clear an intersection after servicing a nearside stop.

The TSP goes off as soon as the vehicle is ready to depart, no creeping up and waiting (looking at you ION). There are dedicated signals to indicate the route set so drivers dont have to stop and inspect the switch.

It's genuinely amazing and infuriating how much faster streetcars can clear intersections with TSP and dual point switches and without stop and inspect and slow orders
