Re: The rise and fall of industrial civilisation (none / 0)
The primary mode of overland personal transportation during the Florida land bubble was rail.

But still, the T-Ford production ended 1927, one year after housing bubble burst, after 15 million produced cars. The population of USA was then, i believe, 150 million. There was a lot of cars in the US already then. And a huge increase since only 1908 when the T-Ford production started.
