To put things into perspective...

In Boston, when they redid the fare structure to Charlie Cards and Tickets, technically the surface trolley routes became PoP like SBS. You were supposed to pay the fare at the farebox and obtain a receipt. If you had an unlimited ride card with the expiration date printed on it, you did not need to get a ticket from the farebox. I don't think I have ever seen one of these validated tickets in all my green line riding.

Fast forward ~8 years: no only does no one ever get a validated ticket, if you have an unlimited ride value on your charlie card you can apparently just wave it, and the driver will usually trust you have a valid pass on it and are not simply waving a completely empty card.
