Hello everyone,
I am doing a term paper for a transportation policy and analysis class.
My topic is: Futurists and Transit. I want to study forms of mass transit in fiction, and try to make a relation to what we could possibly see in our actual future.
For instance: Robert Heinlein wrote a story where roads were converted into giant, fast conveyor belts, changing the landscape and how people moved around.
In the movie version of Minority Report, people moved around in personal transport pods that ran on electricity - and ran up and down the sides of buildings.
I've got a few more, but that's the idea. I could use some help with more examples. Mass transit or personal transport is fine.
Thanks everyone!
