Excerpt from book: TRANSPORTATION has to do with travel, traffic, and communication; it is concerned with the movement of persons and things, and with the transmission of ideas. The term is applied both to the instruments by which movement is accomplished and to the service performed by those agencies. The several instrumentalities-waterways, highways, railroads and the vehicles used upon them, the telegraph and telephone-are spoken of collectively as the transportation system. In the study of transportation attention may be directed either to the system or to the service.
