Streetcars, Streamlines, and Changing Times: Alliance Railroad History, Part III - Streetcars enhance local transportation. Streamliners dazzle the eyes and modernize the staid railroads. The rise of cars, trucks and planes in the 20th Century makes for trying times. Passenger service collapses, capacity declines, and mergers fail, but the government intercedes and freight business consolidates and thrives, with a dizzying impact on Alliance.
