Book Synopsis Rail Versus Road in Ireland, 1900-2000 by : Michael Collins
Book excerpt: In 1900 the railways enjoyed an unrivalled monopoly but, within a few years, first urban electric tramways and then bus competition, offered a challenge that had to be faced. This book charts the uneasy relationship between rail and road transport in both parts of Ireland. It details all major reports and enquiries into public transport in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland with pointers to ow transport policy might develop in the 21st century.
