The interstate highway system is largely to blame. As it expanded, It usurped rail travel that only effectively served a smaller number of established cities. It is more convenient to drive shortish distances within a region than to hassle with train schedules and the problem of getting transport from the station to the final destination. This then assisted the growth of post-war cities that were mere backwaters 75 years ago. |
