1. Trains
In the early days of transportation, trains used to be pulled by steam engines. Today, trains run with diesel engines and electric engines.
2. Cars
In the 1960's only one in four people had a car and many of these were Holden's. Now most people have one or even more cars and there are now lots of popular brands.
3. Environment
Many years ago people didn't understand or worry about the environment. Today we can make better transport choices like catching public transport, or driving an environmentally - friendly car.
