By the late 1800s, people needed a form of mass transit to make commuting efficient. In 1867, elevated railroads were created above urban neighborhoods, laying the groundwork for the first form of rapid transit. After that in 1888 the world's first electric streetcar was used in commuting. Each streetcar was powered by multiple-unit control, allowing for greater speed and acceleration.
