Rail transport did not vanish in the twentieth century any more than road transport vanished in the nineteenth with the appearance of the railways. This book examines how railway companies reacted to increasing competition from road transport, and exploring the degree to which railways depended on road transportation at different times and places.
"In this volume, the interdependence between road and rail transport is investigated, providing a fascinating reappraisal of the complex and shifting nature of European transportation over the last hundred years. The first half the collection examines how railway companies reacted to increasing competition from road transport. The second part focuses on road mobility, a key success story of the twentieth century"--Provided by publisher.
