	Introduction: Report on the Carlin Rail Route Option, 1993
		Potential transportation modes and routes, including regional highway and rail options that may be used to transport high-level wastes to the site of a potential Yucca Mountain repository, are being studied in Nevada by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
		Transportation activities in Nevada are focused on the development of rail access to the Yucca Mountain site, evaluations of potential transportation impacts in Nevada, coordination with other DOE transportation activities, and response to transportation issues raised in Nevada.
		For another, conditions along a historical rail route — in terms of land ownership, land use, and the natural environment — may be significantly different today than in the past.

	[Rail and road transport]
		Road transport representatives agreed that they should pay the full cost when they turned to motor transport, without deduction for the right of untaxed user before the use of motor transport.
		- Railways and road transport cannot be placed on a footing of equality in competition by releasing railways from their obligations as common carriers, or from the control of their charges, or their national scales of wages and working conditions.
		All owners of motor vehicles (both road hauliers and ancillary users) should hold an operating licence, which should be conditional upon the observance of reasonable wages and conditions of service, and on the vehicles being maintained in a condition of fitness.

		The adverse consequences of these decisions clearly appeared with the first Diesel railcars and Diesel-electric locomotives because of the worrying inadequacies both of the superstructure and of the signals that were an obstacle for the complete use of the new rolling stock.
		Having no possibility to renew all of their rail network due to the lack of economical support, the FSE were forced to defend their traffic with the same means of the competition : therefore, above all, they improved the motor services that up to then had been everything but marginal.
		The renewal of the superstructure continues with the placing of the UNI 50 rails and new “double-bulk” sleepers are set instead of the wooden ones on the Taranto - Novoli - Gagliano di Leuca.

		The objective of the study was to determine the transportation needs of the Sydney Region to the year 2000, to propose a series of alternatives to meet these needs, to evaluate the costs and benefits of each, and to develop a plan that best satisfied the future needs of the Sydney area.

	Treasures - Chadwicks Paraffin Wax (1932)
		These unprepossessing pieces of paraffin wax were used by James Chadwick (1891-1974) early in 1932 in experiments which established the existence of neutrons, particles found alongside protons in the nuclei of atoms.
		These pieces were placed in the way of radiation emitted by beryllium, which had been bombarded by alpha particles (helium nuclei).
		From his measurements of the energy of the protons and nitrogen nuclei, Chadwick concluded that they had been hit by particles with the same mass as the proton but which were electrically neutral: in other words, the neutron predicted by Rutherford.

		On June 29, 1932, the GM-bus executive committee formally resolved that ‘to develop motorized transportation, our company should initiate a program of this nature and authorize the incorporation of a holding company with a capital of $300,000.’ Thus was formed United Cities Motor Transit (UCMT) as a subsidiary of GM’s bus division.
		Its sole function was to acquire electric street-car companies, convert them to GM motorbus operation, and then resell the properties to local concerns which agreed to purchase GM bus replacements.
		By having NCL resell the properties after conversion was completed, GM and its allied companies were assured that this capital was continuously reinvested in the motorization of additional systems.

		There was also a narrow-gauge railroad which ran from the rail platform directly to the burial trenches; it was used to transport those who arrived too ill or too weak to make it on their own, and for those who had died in transit.
		Then the situation changed, the pace of transports increased, and there were days when 10,000 to 12,000 deportees arrived, including thousands who had died en route and others in a state of exhaustion.
		This state of affairs disrupted the "quiet welcome" designed to deceive the deportees into believing they had arrived at a transit station and that before continuing their journey to a labour camp they must be disinfected.
