NOTES:
Capital
stock is a commonly used economic measure of the capacity of the
transportation system. It combines the capabilities of modes, components, and
owners into a single measure of capacity in dollar value. This measure takes
into account both the quantity of each component (through initial investment)
and its condition (through depreciation and retirments). Data include only
privately owned capital stock unless otherwise noted. Capital stock data are reported after
deducting depreciation. Consumer motor vehicles
are considered consumer durable goods.
In-house transportation includes transportation services provided within a firm
whose main business is not transportation.
For example, grocery companies often use their own truck fleets to
move goods from their warehouses to their retail outlets. Other
publicly owned transportation includes
publicly owned airway, waterway, and transit structures but does not include
associated equipment. Other privately owned transportation includes sightseeing, couriers and messengers, and
transportation support activities, such as freight transportation
brokers. Data may not add to total
because of independent rounding.
