Il racconto, contrappuntato da un ricchissimo corredo illustrato a colori e in bianco e nero sempre accompagnato da didascalie chiarificatrici, muove dal 1840, dai mezzi a trazione animale, per passare poi all'elettrificazione di fine XIX secolo, al tram negli anni di guerra e a mezzo di collegamento tra centro e periferia, per giungere infine alla metropolitana e ai nuovi mezzi di trasporti.
