There was also a increase in fuel prices that made gas turbines not good in terms of costing. The basic ideea of gas turbine was that it had less moving parts, so more relaible, less meintenace.
The where gas turbine cars - "Chrysler" - some one mentioned them.
Gas turbine locomotives - "Union Pacific" haves one unit preserved. They also know as bird burners - if any bird got to close to the exhaust
And gas turbines trains, succeful - in Canada - "Turbo Train".
