  • Abstract
    Commercial land transportation embraces the transportation of passengers in urban communities and the intercity transportation of both freight and passengers. In the United States alone, this industry operates in excess of 175 million horsepower. No other industry offers the electrical manufacturers a commensurate opportunity for expanding the use of electric equipment.
