In 2005, we continued to win new customers by delivering superior service quality, and we strengthened our market position and succeeded in increasing revenues and profit substantially. We are all the more pleased that this was achieved against the backdrop of a challenging environment, ever-fiercer competition, and additional cost pressures resulting from a sharp increase in energy prices. In the year under review, we exceeded the financial targets we had set ourselves. Year-on-year, revenues improved by 4.9 percent to 25.1billion euros, driven by strong growth in the Schenker and Long-distance Transport business units. The Regional and Urban Transport business units continued to make substantial revenue contributions. EBIT rose to well over 1.3 billion euros, with ROCE up to 5.0 percent. This means that our efforts to prepare for a future initial public offering are on target. The positive profit trend reflects not only revenue increases but also the progress made in implementing our efficiency programs. In that respect, I should like to highlight our “Qualify”pro- gram. This will help us achieve further efficiency gains and cost reductions, providing the basis for further hard work on improving quality of service and tapping our growth potential. Let me briefly discuss developments in selected business units. The Long-distance Transport business unit has received special attention over the past few years. Attractive offerings have helped us win a large number of new customers and considerably increase our transport performance and market share. After posting strong revenue and profit growth, this business unit is back on track, with a faster-than-expected recovery and a promising future ahead. In a market that remains characterized by intense tender- related competition, the Regional and Urban Transport business units again managed to increase their transport performance. This success was essentially attributable to the constant high quality of our services. In summary, our Passenger Transport division is well positioned as a strong provider of mobility in major cities, conurbations, and across regions. In the context of future growth potential, the Schenker business unit plays a very strong role. Thanks to its global market presence, Schenker is already participating in the positive economic trends of major growth regions in Asia and America and of world trade in general. According to forecasts, trade flows – and, hence, the market potential for transport and logistics services – are set to grow faster than gross domestic product. The interdependence of national economies will continue to increase, as the process of globalization and European integration advances further. Therefore, it is crucial to establish a strong presence in all countries of relevance to our customers. In addition Hartmut Mehdorn to organic growth, we further strengthened our portfolio by acquiring BAX Global CEO and Chairman of the in January 2006. We now have an excellent global position in transport and logistics, Management Board of Deutsche Bahn AG with Schenker and Railion operating in Europe, BAX in America, and Schenker and BAX joining forces in Asia. The combination of Schenker and BAX makes us a market 3 leader in global sea and air freight markets. So we are not only the largest rail company in Europe, but also – beyond our traditional rail business – a leading player in global logistics. This leading position in logistics is a crucial prerequisite for providing our customers with efficient and competitive services. At the same time, our rail freight transport operations, which have built up their presence on the European market in several steps since 1999, are now benefiting from their integration with larger networks and logistics operations.

  • Ballastless Track on High-Speed Lines a Guarantee for Travel Savety And
    Ballastless track on high-speed lines A guarantee for travel savety and comfort Prologue High–speed rail travel, as a fast connection between high-density population areas and as an alternative to frequently-overloaded air connections with an uncertain future, is gaining increasingly in significance all over the world. In the face of growing traffic density, critical views of life-cycle costs and significantly increa- sed requirements of the availability of railway tracks, there is an increasing demand for track systems which have a long lifetime, low service and maintenance costs and which also guarantee tra- vel safety and comfort. Ballastless tracks (BLT) have numerous advantages over the tradi- tional ballasted track, because of markedly reduced maintenance costs, longer duration of use, improved precision of the running track and the resultant quiet vehicle running. High speed and ballast The nature of the route requirements is changing, as a result of an increase in travel speed or axle loads. The load transported creates inertial forces and the particular more-frequent faults ari- sing from the rolling process are increasing dramatically. Altered deformation mechanisms with dynamic stimulation can result in major grain shifts during piling-up of ballast, which result in con- siderable impairment of the ballasted track and are responsible for uneven creeping and track displacement in the ballast bed. In addition, the track ballast stones are sucked up by vehicles at very high speeds (flying ballast) and may damage them. De- spite the choice of harder types of stone for ballast in high-speed traffic, maintenance costs are considerably higher.

  • Verkehrsverbund: the Evolution and Spread of Fully-Integrated Regional
    Verkehrsverbund: The Evolution and Spread of Fully-Integrated Regional Public Transport in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland By Ralph Buehler, John Pucher, and Oliver Dümmler Abstract: Throughout the world, urban areas have been rapidly expanding, exacerbating the problem of many public transport (PT) operators providing service over different governmental jurisdictions. Over the past five decades, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland have successfully implemented regional PT associations (called Verkehrsverbund or VV), which integrate services, fares, and ticketing while coordinating public transport planning, marketing, and customer information throughout metropolitan areas, and in some cases, entire states. A key difference between VVs and other forms of regional PT coordination is the collaboration and mutual consultation of government jurisdictions and PT providers in all decision-making. This article examines the origins of VVs, their spread to 13 German, Austrian, and Swiss metropolitan areas from 1967 to 1990, and their subsequent spread to 58 additional metropolitan areas from 1991 to 2017, now serving 85% of Germany’s and 100% of Austria’s population. The VV model has spread quickly because it is adaptable to the different degrees and types of integration needed in different situations. Most of the article focuses on six case studies of the largest VVs: Hamburg (opened in 1967), Munich (1971), Rhine-Ruhr (1980), Vienna (1984), Zurich (1990), and Berlin-Brandenburg (1999). Since 1990, all six of those VVs have increased the quality and quantity of service, attracted more passengers, and reduced the percentage of costs covered by subsidies. By improving PT throughout metropolitan areas, VVs provide an attractive alternative to the private car, helping to explain why the car mode share of trips has fallen since 1990 in all of the case studies.
