FREQUENCY AND PURPOSE OF RAILWAY JOURNEYS
The data hereunder has been extracted from the Flash
Eurobarometer Survey 382a on "European satisfaction with Rail
Services" (http://ec.europa.eu/public_opinion/flash/fl_382a_en.pdf) carried
out by TNS Political & Social network in 26 Member States of the European
Union between 9 and 11 September 2013. Cyprus and Malta were not included in
this survey as there are no national, regional or suburban trains in those
countries. 26,034 respondents aged 15 years old or more from different
social and demographic groups were interviewed via telephone (landline and
mobile phone) in their mother tongue on behalf of the Directorate-General for
Mobility and Transport. The methodology used is that of Eurobarometer surveys
as carried out by the Directorate-General for Communication (“Strategy, Corporate
Communication Actions and Eurobarometer” Unit)1 of the European Commission. A
technical note on the manner in which interviews were conducted by the
Institutes within the TNS Political & Social network is appended as an
annex to the report. Also included are the interview methods and confidence
intervals.

Market segments
5a.
Market segments in 2012: high-speed, long distance, regional and suburban
services (estimations as a percentage of passenger-kilometres)
Source: RMMS questionnaires and other
sources, as detailed hereunder.
Notes:
Data on
white background has been provided by Member States; data on grey background is
unavailable and has been estimated through other sources:
-       
For high-speed services: data from Eurostat, Transport in Figures, anno 2013. To obtain the
total pass-km on long-distance services, the pass-km from high-speed services
were deducted from the total pass-km of UIC type B traffic, as reported in the
RMMS questionnaire (cf. Sweden, Germany, Czech Republic, Finland, Portugal and
Netherlands) and provided in 5b (assuming no changes in the percentage of
pass-km between 2011 and 2012).
-       
For Belgium and Netherlands: estimation between "regional/suburban services" and
"long-distance/high-speed" is based on Amadeus estimations of rail
services below and beyond 100km
-       
For Estonia: the
share of "regional/suburban services" is derived from the market
share of Elektriraudtee
-       
For Spain: data
from the annual report of RENFE (2012)
-       
For Portugal:
data from the annual report of CP (2012)
-       
For Italy: data
from the annual report of Trenitalia
-       
For Greece: data
reuses the breakdowns used in the White Paper on Transport models.
5b - High-speed services passenger-km (2011)

Stations, freight terminals, marshalling yards and other service
facilities (2012)
Source: RMMS questionnaires and other sources, as
detailed hereunder.

For Spain: Data from
Observatorio del Ferrocarril, 2011
-       
For Norway:
maintenance facilities compete in the market for contracts
ANNEX 7
Satisfaction
with stations
The data hereunder has been extracted from the Flash
Eurobarometer Survey 382a on "European satisfaction with Rail
Services" (http://ec.europa.eu/public_opinion/flash/fl_382a_en.pdf) carried
out by TNS Political & Social network in 26 Member States of the European
Union between 9 and 11 September 2013. Cyprus and Malta were not included in
this survey as there are no national, regional or suburban trains in those
countries. 26,034 respondents aged 15 years old or more from different
social and demographic groups were interviewed via telephone (landline and
mobile phone) in their mother tongue on behalf of the Directorate-General for
Mobility and Transport. The methodology used is that of Eurobarometer surveys
as carried out by the Directorate-General for Communication (“Strategy,
Corporate Communication Actions and Eurobarometer” Unit)1 of the European
Commission. A technical note on the manner in which interviews were conducted
by the Institutes within the TNS Political & Social network is appended as
an annex to the report. Also included are the interview methods and confidence
intervals.
7a
- Satisfaction with the provision of information on timetables

charges and revenues of main infrastructure managers
8a
- Average track access charges in 2013
Source: RMMS questionnaires 2011.
Notes:
Data on white background has been
provided by Member States; data on grey background is unavailable or has not
been requested to Member States.
-       
For Germany: the
mentioned increase for freight refers to the track products with the highest
increase and which is relevant for freight, which has been the F5
(long-distance rail services using regional lines in priority at speeds below
120kmph) track product. This is also the case for intercity passenger traffic
where the relevant track product with the highest increase has been F1 and for
regional services, F2. 
-       
For Estonia: data
reflects the average between Elektriraudtee and Esti Raudtee, as provided in
the Estonian RMMS questionnaire; however, it might be more adequate to only
take into account the charges paid on average by Eesti Raudtee.
-       
For Netherlands (1): 2,64 EUR/train-km applies to the Betuwe line (linking Rotterdam to
The Netherlands), whereas 2,50 EUR/train-km applies to the Hoofdrailnet (the
main railway network in the Randstad). 
-       
For the Netherlands (2): the increase of track access charges for freight trains is actually
compared to 2012 charges (defined in 2010) but a decrease of 2011 charges
(defined in 2009).

questionnaires 2012.
Notes:
-       
Austria: the
increase of charges for intercity trains applies only to trains affected by the
high-speed surcharge; 
-       
Germany: the
mentioned increase for freight refers to the track products with the highest
increase and which is relevant for freight, which has been the Z1 routes for
regional trains where speeds are limited to 100 km/h) track product. This is
also the case for intercity passenger traffic where the relevant track product
with the highest increase has been F+ and for regional services, F6.
-       
Portugal: charges
are for trains with diesel traction (to ensure that electricity is deducted)
-       
Spain: the
infrastructure charge for intercity trains that is used for this table is the
one of high-speed services below 260 km/h - please note that most long-distance
services in Spain are performed with high-speed trains.
-       
Slovenia: no VAT
is included

ANNEX 11
Rail fares
3 types of rail
fares of 30 long-distance commercial services were collected.
-       
Business day-return fares: Simulation of a purchase of a business return ticket with 6 or 8
days in advance in first class with the maximum flexibility. The departure is
in the morning between 07:00 and 09:00 (earlier departure is taken) with a
return after 17:00 (earlier departure is taken).
-       
Leisure - weekend ticket reserved 2 weeks in
advance: Simulation of a week-ed travel in second
class with a departure on Friday (after 17:00) and a return on Sunday (after
17:00) with the cheapest fare.
-       
Leisure - immediate departure: Simulation of an immediate departure on a Saturday with a return on
Sunday. The cheapest ticket is preferred.
Date of fares collection: The fare
collection was conducted on Business day-return fares on 3 dates (19 February,
8 March and 1st April), Leisure - weekend trip on 2 dates (8 March and 1st
April) and on 6 April for Leisure - immediate departure. Of course, under a
real simulation the collection of the 3 fares should have been done in an equal
number of times.

out by TNS Political & Social network in 26 Member States of the European
Union between 9 and 11 September 2013. Cyprus and Malta were not included in
this survey as there are no national, regional or suburban trains in those
countries. 26,034 respondents aged 15 years old or more from different
social and demographic groups were interviewed via telephone (landline and
mobile phone) in their mother tongue on behalf of the Directorate-General for
Mobility and Transport. The methodology used is that of Eurobarometer surveys
as carried out by the Directorate-General for Communication (“Strategy,
Corporate Communication Actions and Eurobarometer” Unit)1 of the European
Commission. A technical note on the manner in which interviews were conducted
by the Institutes within the TNS Political & Social network is appended as

Rail passenger transport (market shares in passengers-kilometres), in
regional/suburban
Source: RMMS questionnaires (cf. table 5e), with the
following methodological notes:
-       
New entrants are railway undertakings whose
public service contract has been competitively tendered. 
-       
Other railway undertakings than the principal
railway undertaking appear to have obtained public service contracts on the
basis of tenders in Germany and Denmark; in Austria, Slovakia and Romania, the
public service contracts appear to have been directly awarded.
-       
in Poland, regional operators which have been
directly awarded public service contracts have not been considered as new
entrants.
Remarks:
-       
Sweden (***): According to the annual report of
SJ, it has transported 6415 million de passenger-km, and therefore has an
overall share of 55% for passenger services. It is however impossible to
determine its share of regional/suburban services.

New entrants are railway undertakings that
operate in open access. 
-       
In Poland and Romania (*), all other railway
undertakings than the principal railway undertaking have been assumed to be
regional operators .
Remarks:

Public Service
Obligations as defined in Regulation 1370/2007 of 23 October 2007: "‘public
service obligation’ means a requirement defined or determined by a competent
authority in order to ensure public passenger transport services in the general
interest that an operator, if it were considering its own commercial interests,
would not assume or would not assume to the same extent or under the same
conditions without reward";
(2)              
tkm = tonne-kilometre
(3)              
pkm =
passenger-kilometre
(4)              
Please do not include
passenger transit in total figure to ensure comparability with Eurostat data.
(5)              
Provide passenger
transit figures as far as available. Do not include in total figure as Eurostat
survey does not include them.
(6)              
Please apply
territoriality principle, i.e. an undertaking operating in more than one
country would see its share split across respective national rail markets.
(7)              
Please indicate if
possible for each railway undertaking whether the majority of the assets are
private or public-owned
(8)              
E.g. measures related
to the organisation of driver training, opening of training centres, support schemes
for management training in the rail sector, setting up of an advanced
apprenticeship scheme in the rail sector, international exchange programmes for
staff or developments on the market for training services. 
(9)              
Contract concluded with
the State or other competent authorities providing for financial compensation
to infrastructure managers for maintenance and renewal to achieve an agreed
performance, according to Directive 2001/14/EC, Article 6: "Infrastructure
cost and accounts: 
1.     
Member States shall lay
down conditions, including where appropriate advance payments, to ensure that,
under normal business conditions and over a reasonable time period, the
accounts of an infrastructure manager shall at least balance income from
infrastructure charges, surpluses from other commercial activities and State
funding on the one hand, and infrastructure expenditure on the other.            
Without prejudice to the possible long-term aim of user cover of infrastructure
costs for all modes of transport on the basis of fair, non-discriminatory
competition between the various modes, where rail transport is able to compete
with other modes of transport, within the charging framework of Articles 7 and
8, a Member State may require the infrastructure manager to balance his
accounts without State funding.
2.     
Infrastructure managers
shall, with due regard to safety and to maintaining and improving the quality
of the infrastructure service, be provided with incentives to reduce the costs
of provision of infrastructure and the level of access charges.
3.     
Member States shall
ensure that the provision set out in paragraph 2 is implemented, either through
a contractual agreement between the competent authority and infrastructure
manager covering a period of not less than three years which provides for State
funding or through the establishment of appropriate regulatory measures with
adequate powers.
4.     
Where a contractual
agreement exists, the terms of the contract and the structure of the payments
agreed to provide funding to the infrastructure manager shall be agreed in
advance to cover the whole of the contract period.
5.     
A method for
apportioning costs shall be established. Member States may require prior
approval. This method should be updated from time to time to the best
international practice".
