    This paper summarises the results of a detailed study of the preferences of public transport users and residents of Dresden for different types of public transport. The focus of the analysis is the hypothesis, that rail based forms of public transport are preferred all other things being equal. The hypothesis is a central argument in many current discussions about the reintroduction or extension of tram and light rail systems. The study is based on a two-wave before and after panel of residents and public transport users in a part of Dresden, where the local operator changed from tram to bus operations. It involved both revealed (RP) and stated preference (SP) surveys in both waves. The results of the estimated choice models indicate a consistent preference for rail-based in-vehicle time, but it is not clear, if this preference has a large impact on ridership to justify alone the investment cost differentials between road and rail based alternatives.

    Improved accessibility and its correlate lower generalized cost of contact, travel andtransport have been sought by dynamic human societies for their economic and social benefits throughout recorded history. The paper will reflect about this process at a number of different spatial and temporal scales based on a conceptual model. Looking back at European history, it will trace the interaction between Christaller’s logic of local market areas and the idea of (low contact cost) network cities. Focusing on Switzerland since 1950 it will show how network investment changed the relative distribution of population and employment and how this interacted with changes in the preferences of the travelers. Using a recent snapshot of how a substantial sample of Swiss maintain their social networks over often very large areas, it will try to answer the question of what will happen in the future, if the current trend of ever lower costs of contact persists.
