European Rail & Intermodal 2008
Posted November 3rd, 2008 at 04:53 AM by Bharatbook
Bharat Book.com presents a new report on the European Rail and Intermodal in 2008.(http://www.bharatbook.com/productdetail.asp?id=77181)
As part of a long-standing plan to revitalise the rail industry in the European Community, from January 2007 all European Union (EU) rail freight lines were opened up to competition. Up until then only international freight services, which represented approximately half of the total market for the rail transport of goods in Europe, were liberalised. The European Commission is hoping as a result of this change that rail freight will now attract new investors and customers by offering services that are more adapted to the needs of the market. The main hope is that the railways will steadily increase their market shares.
Freight movement within Western Europe has been a growing market for many years. Although there has been a substantial decline in traditional rail freight markets, especially the movement of heavy goods such as coal and steel, the overall growth of freight shipments has enabled the rail freight market to maintain its volumes in recent years, despite losing market share.
Although facing considerable resistance from some quarters, the liberalisation of the rail freight industry represents a huge opportunity to energise a sector which has been in the doldrums for many years.
What are the key trends in the market?
What is the impact of liberalisation?
Which are the largest rail and intermodal
operators?
How are they structured?
What are their revenues?
How fast is the market growing?
What are implications of greater rail use for
the environment?
How are the major ports utilising rail to
overcome congestion?
What are the rail strategies of the major
forwarders, shipping lines and 3PLs?

other modal choices.
