A growing literature has documented that firm dynamics exhibit substantial differences in developed and developing countries. While there is a massive turnover of firms in developed countries, such a selection mechanism is largely absent in developing countries. Understanding the determinants of firm growth, factor reallocation, and firm-level productivity, as well as the link between firm and industry dynamics is key to shed light on performances of aggregate economies. This conference will have prominent researchers present their recent work on the subject and foster a conversation among scholars that use different approaches to understand firm and industry dynamics and their aggregate implications.

ADDITIONAL NOTES.
Viewed in conjunction with the text of the previous image the other company using large 75t capacity bogie sand and gravel hoppers for sea dredged aggregates in the South East was Brett Marine Ltd. This company had a smaller fleet of 20 hoppers operating from their terminal at Cliffe on the Isle of Grain serving terminals in London and the South East. Unlike the Murphy/Marcon fleet the wagons were lower to the track with deeper hoppers and thus 10ft shorter as they operated to sites with bottom discharge hopper pits. Brett Marine despite having less wagons was actually a larger concern as it owned the dredgers operating in the Thames Estuary and North Sea as well as gravel pits in East Kent. The wagon fleet was never owned by Brett's and was instead leased from ELC (Equipment Leasing Company) when new they carried the lettering "Marinex Gravel' and for railwaymen in the North Kent area this rather stuck as years after losing the lettering the Brett and Murphy/Marcon fleets were simply known as Marinex wagons. The harsh nature of their load is born out in this image by the holes and rust blisters from sea water corrosion. Despite the sand and gravel passing through a washing plant before loading these wagons always seemed to rot pretty quickly. The end inspection hatch is open on this one for maintenance staff to access the braking equipment compartment.

Still in the RMC orange livery this DAF would not be far from being repainted in Cemex white when I photographed it

The loco's had just finished loading a rake of CSX hoppers & after inviting me into the cab, the Engineer informed me the quarry manager was English.
I'm pretty sure I didn't even upload anything that day. This is what we scientists call, "a significant spike" in whoring a photostream.
