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.
