Birth-Death Process of Transport Technology
In the beginning…
In the end…
“… [I]n capitalist reality…, it is not [price] competition which counts but the competition from the new commodity, the new technology…- competition which commands a decisive cost or quality advantage and which strikes not at the margins of the profits and the outputs of the existing firms but at their foundations and their very lives.” Joseph A Shumpeter (1883-1950)

2nd half of 19th Century is a period of industrialization and rapid growth of cities
• In response, cities can occupy the same area at a higher density, implying higher congestion, or

• Expand over a larger area, requiring better transportation technology.

Berlin, 1879
Kurfurstendamm St., 1879
Thomas Davenport (1802-1851)an American blacksmith and inventor who invented the first DC electrical motor in 1834 and made a small model of electrical railway in 1835. He patented a device for "Improvements in propelling machinery by magnetism and electromagnetism" in 1837 (his electric railway).
Davenport's model of an electric "train." The circular track is 4 feet in diameter. Power was supplied from a stationary battery to the moving electric locomotive, using the rails as conductors
for the electricity

Early Innovators of the Automobile
Nicolaus Otto (1832-1891)invented the first practical alternative to the steam engine in 1876 -- the first four-stroke internal combustion engine. He called it the "Otto Cycle Engine," and as soon as he had completed his engine, he
built it into a motorcycle.
