dear sustran-discuss members,
vaguely i do remember something about an us-american city, where the (rail-based) public transport systems were bought up by the
automotive industries, to be demolished, in order to push car-sales...
can anybody tell, whether this holds true or is a rumour, which city this was, andwhether there is any quotable information on
this(bibliographical notes)???
thank you very much.
best regards,
matthias mueth

Dear colleagues,dear Mathias,
I read some papers on this question a long time ago. I think there was a paper and reply in the Journal of America Planning
Association in the 70's or 80's. I try to find it again.
In fact there is some literature on this debate (is car industry responsible or not).
Best regards
