At a time when inter-city transport and manufacturing were accelerating, urban transport was trying to keep up with the new pace imposed by industrialization (and the spectacular development of the railways). The need for transportation speed meant, at first, increasing horsepower to supplement horsepower: 0.05 horsepower per capita in London and 0.55 horsepower per capita in New York.
