HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Objective
The objective of this Regulation is to establish common rules for the
production of Community rail transport statistics.
Article 2
Scope
ThisRegulation s hall cover all railwaysin the Community. Each
Member State shall report statistics which relate to rail transport on itsnational territory. Where a railway undertaking operatesin more thanone Member State, the national authoritiesconcerned s hall require the
undertaking to provide data separately for each country in which it
operates so as to enable national statistics to be compiled.
Member Statesmay exclude from the s cope of thisRegulation:
(a) railway undertakingswhich operate entirely or mainly within
industrial and similar installations, including harbours;
(b) railway undertakings which mainly provide local tourist services,
such as preserved historical steam railways.
Article 3
Definitions
1. For the purposes of this Regulation the following definitions shall
apply:
1. ‘reporting country’ meansthe Member State trans mitting data to
Eurostat;

hauled by another vehicle (coaches, railcar trailers, vans and
wagons);
5. ‘railway undertaking’ meansany public or private undertaking
which provides services for the transport of goods and/or passen-gers by rail. Undertakings whose only business is to provideservices for the transport of passengers by metro, tram and/or light
rail are excluded;
6. ‘trans port of goodsby rail’ meansthe movement of goodsus ing
railway vehiclesbetween the place of loading and the place of

tram and/or light rail isexcluded;
8. ‘metro’ (also known as ‘subway’, ‘metropolitan railway’ or ‘under-
ground’) means an electric railway for the transport of passengers
with the capacity for a heavy volume of traffic and characterisedby exclusive rights-of-way, multi-car trains, high speed and rapidacceleration, sophisticated signalling as well as the absence of levelcrossings to allow a high frequency of trains and high platformload. Metros are also characterised by closely spaced stations,
normally meaning a distance of 700 to 1 200 m between the

metros, light rail is more lightly constructed, is designed for lower
traffic volumes and usually travels at lower speeds. It is sometimesdifficult to make a precise distinction between light rail and trams;tramsare generally not s eparated from road traffic, whereaslightrail may be separated from other systems;

crew, who makes a trip by rail. For accident statistics, passengerstrying to embark/disembark onto/from a moving train are included;
15. ‘number of passengers’ means the number of trips by rail passen-
gers, where each trip is defined as the movement from the place ofembarkation to the place of disembarkation, with or without trans-fers from one rail vehicle to another. If passengers use the servicesof more than one railway undertaking, when possible they should
not be counted more than once;
16. ‘passenger-km’ means the unit of measure representing the trans-
port of one passenger by rail over a distance of one kilometre.2003R0091 — EN — 24.07.2003 — 001.001 — 4

point to a terminal fixed point. A light engine, i.e. a locomotive
travelling on itsown, isnot cons idered to be a train;
20. ‘train-km’ means the unit of measure representing the movement of
a train over one kilometre. The distance used is the distance actu-ally run, if available, otherwise the standard network distance

21. ‘full trainload’ means any consignment comprising one or more
wagonloads transported at the same time by the same sender at
the same station and forwarded with no change in train composi-
tion to the address of the same consignee at the same destinationstation;
22. ‘full wagonload’ meansany cons ignment of goodsfor which the
exclusive use of a wagon is required, whether the total loading
