Rail Issues Update
Briefing Paper to the Energy and Infrastructure Overview and Scrutiny Commission 4th March 2014 Rail Issues Update Briefing Paper of the City Regeneration and Policy Manager 1. Purpose of the Briefing Note This report is an interim position statement on rail issues following the rail themed meeting of this commission with rail industry representatives in June 2013. Rail industry representatives have been invited to attend this commission to answer questions and give further updates. 2. Rail Issues for Consideration 2.1. Electrification 2.1.1. First Hull Trains (FHT) have submitted a proposal to the Government in which they would raise the funding to deliver electrification of the route between the East Coast Main Line (North of Doncaster) through to Hull via Selby. This could potentially bring electrification forward to 2016/17 (The Government currently does not plan to electrify this section until some unspecified time after 2019). FHT‟s proposal appears to depend on the Government releasing the funding to „buy-back‟ the completed electric infrastructure. Exactly how much (and when) the Government agree to pay is critical to FHT‟s fund raising and to any request for public funding support. FHT have requested a grant from the LEP (Local Growth fund) and a loan (Public Works Loan Board) from the LEP / Council towards the total scheme cost which is believed to be around £94m 2.1.2. The Council, business leaders and MP‟s have been lobbying ministers for early scheme funding and they have agreed to meet a delegation from the City and the East Riding on the 25th February (verbal update to be given).

Red Bank Manchester Decision Document
15 October 2018 Network licence condition 7 (land disposal): Red Bank Former Carriage Sidings, Collyhurst Road, Manchester Decision 1. On 16 August 2018, Network Rail gave notice of the intention to dispose of land at Red Bank Former Carriage Sidings, Collyhurst Road, Manchester (the land), in accordance with paragraph 7.2 of condition 7 of Network Rail’s network licence. The land and disposal is described in more detail in the notice (copy attached). 2. We have considered the information supplied by Network Rail including the responses received from third parties consulted. For the purposes of condition 7 of Network Rail’s network licence, ORR consents to the disposal of the land in accordance with the particulars set out in the notice. Network Rail’s proposals 3. The land which forms Network Rail’s proposals comprises three sites: the ‘Red Bank’ former carriage sidings (shown as Area 1 on plan 6438292-1); the ‘Red Bank’ land and railway arches (shown as Area 2 on plan 6438292-1) - both areas are to be sold to the Far East Consortium; and the site adjacent to Area 1 (shown on plan 6438292-2) is to be acquired by Transport for Greater Manchester. 4. Network Rail’s stakeholder consultation showed that three objections remained unresolved: from First TransPennine Express (FTPE), Arriva Rail North and West Coast Railway Company. All three objections stemmed from a general expectation that increased stabling or depot facilities would be needed in the Manchester area and that existing sites with the potential to accommodate such facilities should not be sold until future requirements were known.

Replacing Amtrak: Privatization, Regionalization, and Liquidation
P o l i c y S t u d y N o . 2 3 5 , O c t o b e r 1 9 9 7 RReeppllaacciinngg AAmmttrraakk:: A Blueprint for Sustainable Passenger Rail Service by Joseph Vranich EXECUTIVE SUMMARY mtrak is a failed national experiment. By its own admission, Amtrak is headed for bankruptcy unless Washington provides another multi-billion-dollar bail-out. Another federal rescue is A unjustified considering that federal and state subsidies to Amtrak since its inception in 1971 are nearing $22.5 billion, an amount out of proportion to Amtrak’s usefulness in most of the nation. The federal government does not run a national airline. It doesn’t operate a national bus company. There’s no justification for a national railroad passenger operation. America needs passenger trains in selected areas, but doesn’t need Amtrak’s antiquated route system, poor service, unreasonable operating deficits, and capital investment program with low rates of return. Amtrak’s failures result in part because it is a public monopoly—the very type of organization least able to innovate. This study reveals an Amtrak credibility crisis in the way it reports ridership figures, glosses over dwindling market share, understates subsidies, issues misleading cost-recovery claims, offers doubtful promises regarding high-speed rail, lacks proper authority for the freight business it recently launched, and misrepresents privatization as its applies to Amtrak. It’s time to liquidate Amtrak, privatize and regionalize parts of it, permit alternative operators to transform some long-distance trains into land-cruise trains, and stop service on hopeless routes.

Application Form P
Form P Application to the Office of Rail Regulation for a passenger track access agreement, or amendment to a passenger track access agreement under sections 17-22A of the Railways Act 1993 1. Introduction Please use this form to apply to the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) for: • directions under section 17 of the Railways Act 1993 for a new track access contract. Section 17 allows companies who want the right to use a railway facility (including Network Rail’s network) to apply to ORR for access if they are not able (for whatever reason) to reach agreement with the facility owner. • approval under section 18 of the Railways Act 1993 for a new track access contract. Section 18 allows companies to apply for approval if they have agreed terms with the facility owner. • approval of a proposed amendment (agreed by both parties) under section 22 of the Railways Act 1993 to an existing track access contract. • directions under section 22A of the Railways Act 1993 for an amendment to an existing track access contract. Section 22A allows anyone seeking an amendment to an existing track access contract which allows the operation of more extensive services to apply for a compulsory amendment if they are not able (for whatever reason) to reach agreement with the facility owner. If it is the facility owner, Network Rail will carry out a pre-application consultation. In this case fill in this form up to section 7.3. You should fill in the rest of the form after the consultation and before applying to ORR.

Can Competition for and in the Market Co-Exist in Terms of Delivering Cost Efficient Services? Evidence from Open Access Train O
Transportation Research Part A 113 (2018) 114–124 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Transportation Research Part A journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/tra Can competition for and in the market co-exist in terms of delivering cost efficient services? Evidence from open access train T operators and their franchised counterparts in Britain ⁎ Phill Wheata, , Andrew S.J. Smitha, Torris Rasmussenb a Institute for Transport Studies, University of Leeds, UK b Norwegian Railway Directorate, Norway ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: This paper aims to inform an important policy debate in Europe on how best to open up pas- Returns to density senger rail markets to increased competition: and specifically, whether to allow open access train Competition-in-the-market operators alongside franchised (tendered) operators. The paper utilises new British data to Competition-for-the-market analyse the cost side of this debate. Our data is unique in that we have cost data by route level for both the incumbent (corresponding to British franchises) and the open access operators, as op- posed to only having cost data on the incumbent at the network level as in other countries. The open access operators are found to have comparable unit costs to franchised operators. This is unexpected considering the significant returns to density that benefit the larger franchised op- erators. This is subsequently found to be due to lower input prices and an ‘open access business model’ effect that outweigh any density disadvantages. Overall we find that there are negligible cost disadvantages of allowing open access operators to compete with franchised intercity op- erators.
