It may be unusual in USA. But in Montreal, especially since the opening of the Laval extension, the east branch of the metro orange line is overcrowded... Some of my coworkers have reported to let 2-3 trains go before they can have a place to enter.
Most of the commuter trains are also overcrowded during rush hours, especially the Deux-Montagnes line.
And buses... The reserved bus line that is running between Brossard and downtown running at full capacity, and the replacement of the line by a modern LRT line is in planning since a decade now. Same thing for Park Avenue and Pie-IX lines.
