However, many already expire until 2015 • Typical operations in the still closed market segment: - Suburban RER-style systems in Berlin, Hamburg, Munich - Regional express services with 10-20 year-old double-deck coaches - Regional express services with 10-20 year-old tilting trains (high- end DMU) - Line services with other ~10-year-old single deck EMU or DMU • Characteristics of old closed-market contracts of DB - Offensive negotiation position for DB, PTA in defensive position - High subsidy level, very high margins (operational profit > 500 M€ p.a., margin >10%) - Until year 2000, many PTA also have funded rolling stock investments (with 50%-75%) - Net contracts, commercial risk is borne by DB - Limited fleet specification, high flexibility to move around trains within DB fleet - Few other contractual obligations (penalty schemes etc.) • Only ~55% of market has been opened so far, ~45% are still closed • Closed market operated by DB: revenue still ~4.0 BN€ Regional and suburban rail market opening Tender volume 2003-2018 (past, recent and expected volume in train km) PSC = Public Service Contracts !
