Note to tables 9 a-e: 

According to Art. 4 of the Regulation (EC) No 91/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2002 on rail transport statistics, railway 
undertakings with the total volume of goods or passenger transport amounting to less than 500 m tkm or 200 m pkm are not obliged to provide Eurostat with 
quarterly statistics. Consequently, the transport performance calculated for 2005 and 2006 as the sum of the values of four quarters of the respective year is not 
fully comparable with data presented in Annex 8. 

Eurostat quarterly statistics and ETIF/Eurostat yearly statistics are not comparable because quarterly statistics exclude small new competitors.

Evolution of rail transport by Member State, year and market segment (1990-2008) 

ANNEX 11 

11a. Overview per Member State 

Note 1: International transport includes transit 

Note 2: Unlike most other annexes which give priority to the Eurostat figures, Annex 11a presents 
in the first place data submitted by the national authorities in the framework of the 2009 RMMS 
questionnaire. There is a certain discrepancy between the Eurostat data and data provided by the 
national Ministries  responsible for transport and other  competent national authorities represented 
in the RMMS Working Group. For instance, RMMS data for UK do not cover Northern Ireland. 

Note 3: for Spain, the table includes two different sources: (1) for the period 1990-2005, the data 
include also traffic of regional rail companies and the source used is not RMMS questionnaire. (2) 
from 2006-2008 data are referred exclusively to RENFE Operadora, and have been extracted from 
the RMMS questionnaire. Traffic data of new freight operators in tkm are not available.

*  Rail  market  opening  score  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  Herfindahl-Hirschman  Index  which 
estimates the concentration ratio in an industry and serves as an indicator of the amount of competition in 
the respective market. Herfindahl-Hirschman Index is defined as the sum of squares of the market shares of 
each individual firm. As such, it can range from 0 to 1 moving from a very large amount of very small firms 
to a single monopolistic producer. 

Here we provide an approximation based on the square of the market share of the most important company.
