This article traces developments in transport history as a subdiscipline of economic and social history over the last half-century. It evaluates the role played by the cliometricians in making transport history controversial as well as the different emphasis placed upon it by the new Chandlerian business history. It also examines the changes in the publishing outlets devoted to this field, and the various organisational initiatives which have been taken, and evaluates the main trends in the historiography. It ends with some consideration of gaps and debates in the subject which suggest opportunities for future research
