Transportation Systems Analysis Fall 2010/11Birth-Death Process of Transport TechnologyIn 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)Orf 467 – Transportation Systems Analysis Fall 2010/112nd half of 19th Century is a period of

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."
