WCRB Report on Transportation (1983: Doomsday)

This is the WCRB report commisioned to combine the reports from several countries governments to provide a detailed analisis on the state of the worlds transport infastructure and non automobile related vehicle production.

Introduction
Doomsday uterly changed the face of the worlds transport infastructure. The worlds road travel was uterly deverstated by the event as most of the coutries with large road infastructure were destroyed by Doomsday. Railways have become the largest way of transporting pasangers and goods and many countries have had to radicaly rebuild there transport infastructure. The most radical reformation has been in air travel where jet based aircraft have been replaced by airships and piston engined aircraft.

This report was commisioned by WCRB officals when it was discovered that the nearly every government had commisioned some form of report on transport infastructure and there was a desire by the WCRB to produce a comprehensive report detailing transport across the whole world not just within certain regions. As well as incorperating aspects of local reports WCRB officals traveled around the world to get a first hand view of the situation.

Jet & Turboprop Aircraft
Prior to Doomsday air travel by jet craft had been one of the worlds fastest growing industrys. People were traveling far and wide and cheaper ticket prices ment that people were traveling even more. During Doomsday all planes in the air above the US and most of the USSR were crippled by EMP damage and crashed killing all onboard. Aircraft above Europe and Asia were forced to try and land in non nuked contries with some making it to Norway, Northern Africa, South America and Australia. Now jet travel is a rarity in most of the world as very few countries have the capacity to refine the Kerosene that jet engines need, most jets are operated by military organisations with the exceptions being in the ,, and CANZ
