Welcome. This is the discussion space attached to the Transport Atlas, organized around modes, vehicles, infrastructure and the networks that carry people and goods, honest about disputes such as aviation priority between the Wright brothers and the Whitehead and Pearse claims. A few house rules: keep a disagreement about evidence rather than about people, and cite what you can.
The atlas itself is still being built. Every room below carries an opening note from the curator to start it off, and you are welcome to open your own thread on anything those rooms cover, or to use this room for whatever does not fit a narrower one.
