  • Stand Des Wettbewerbs Im Personenverkehr
    Stand des Wettbewerbs im Personenverkehr Bedauerlicherweise verdeckt die häufig sehr pauschal geführte Debatte über die Qualität des Eisen- bahnverkehrs besonders im Personenverkehr, dass sich seit der Bahnreform der Neunzigerjahre der Markt vollkommen verändert hat, und dass die Qualität auch deutlich gestiegen ist. Die Konzentration vieler Debatten auf die Deutsche Bahn AG wird der vorhandenen Betreiber- und Anbietervielfalt und den Marktanteilen nicht mehr gerecht. Sie spiegelt auch nicht wider, dass viele wichtige DB-Wettbe- werber selbst große internationale Verkehrskonzerne im Hintergrund haben, die ähnlich viel Kompe- tenz und Erfahrung aufweisen wie die DB. Im Personenverkehr wird diese Unwucht besonders deutlich, denn bei der bundesweiten Debatte um Qualität und Pünktlichkeit steht immer der DB-Fernverkehr – und hier wiederum fast ausschließlich der Hochgeschwindigkeitsverkehr mit dem DB-Produkt ICE – im Mittelpunkt, was das Gesamtbild des Marktes und auch die Erfahrung der Fahrgäste nicht adäquat widerspiegelt. Dem Fernverkehr wird in der aktuellen Diskussion und Wahrnehmung eine überdurchschnittliche Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Ein Vielfaches des Schienenverkehrsaufkommens des Fernverkehrs wird jedoch im regionalen Schie- nenverkehr (SPNV) erbracht. Gerade hier – im täglichen Verkehr zu Arbeit, Schule oder Universität – lassen sich Autofahrten ersetzen und liegt die Lösung für die Umweltprobleme und die durch Verkehrs- probleme sinkende Lebensqualität in den Metropolregionen. Der weitere Ausbau des SPNV besonders im Bereich 20-100 km um die größeren Städte des Landes bietet große Wachstumspotenziale und ist zur Erreichung der Klimaziele und der verkehrspolitischen Ziele zur Verlagerung von Verkehrsanteilen auf die Schiene ohne Alternative, wird aber zu wenig forciert. 1. Entwicklung des Mobilitätsbedarfs Die Bevölkerung der Bundesrepublik ist im Jahr 2018 erstmals auf über 83 Millionen Einwohner ange- stiegen.1 Trotz der insgesamt fortschreitenden Alterung der Gesellschaft wird ein leichter Trend nach oben noch einige Jahre anhalten.

  • NETINERA Deutschland and Alstom Sign a Contract for 63 Coradia Lint Regional Trains
    [Texte] 19 September 2012 A contract worth around €300 million NETINERA Deutschland and Alstom sign a contract for 63 Coradia Lint regional trains NETINERA Deutschland and Alstom Transport have signed a contract worth around €300 million for the supply of 63 Coradia Lint regional trains. The new trains will run between Frankfort and Saarbrück (Nahe/Rhine-Hesse region), and between Koblenz and Kaiserslautern (Saar region) from December 2014. The 63 trains will operate in the Southwest Diesel Network and will cover all together a distance of 6.7 million kilometres each year. Alstom develops and manufactures the Coradia Lint trains at its Salzgitter site, in Germany. This contract was signed on the occasion of Innotrans, the International Trade Fair for Transport Technology in Berlin (Germany). “The acquisition of these new trains from Alstom gives the growth potential from NETINERA on the German market an important impulse and is a big step for the group Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane to embrace the challenges in Europe – from the railway operating perspective as well as for the technical knowhow”, says Mauro Moretti, CEO of the Italian State Railways, Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), mother company of NETINERA Deutschland GmbH. Jost Knebel, CEO of NETINERA Deutschland, adds: “We are very pleased to be able to offer the passengers an improved mass transit concept in that region, using our longstanding expertise, the extraordinarily high service orientation of our employees and the new trainsets“. “We are delighted to sign our first contract with NETINERA Deutschland. With more than 700 regional trains sold over the past fifteen years, we provide our customers and their passengers a proven, comfortable and environmentally friendly means of transport“ , states Henri Poupart- Lafarge, President of Alstom Transport.

Different organisational entities must be set up for transport operations on the one hand and infrastructure management on the other. • Opening markets Europe-wide.

  • Competition Act 1998
    Competition Act 1998 Decision of the Office of Rail Regulation* English Welsh and Scottish Railway Limited Relating to a finding by the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) of an infringement of the prohibition imposed by section 18 of the Competition Act 1998 (the Act) and Article 82 of the EC Treaty in respect of conduct by English Welsh and Scottish Railway Limited. Introduction 1. This decision relates to conduct by English Welsh and Scottish Railway Limited (EWS) in the carriage of coal by rail in Great Britain. 2. The case results from two complaints. 3. On 1 February 2001 Enron Coal Services Limited (ECSL)1 submitted a complaint to the Director of Fair Trading2. Jointly with ECSL, Freightliner Limited (Freightliner) also, within the same complaint, alleged an infringement of the Chapter II prohibition in respect of a locomotive supply agreement between EWS and General Motors Corporation of the United States (General Motors). Together these are referred to as the Complaint. The Complaint alleges: “[…] that English, Welsh and Scottish Railways Limited (‘EWS’), the dominant supplier of rail freight services in England, Wales and Scotland, has systematically and persistently acted to foreclose, deter or limit Enron Coal Services Limited’s (‘ECSL’) participation in the market for the supply of coal to UK industrial users, particularly in the power sector, to the serious detriment of competition in that market. The complaint concerns abusive conduct on the part of EWS as follows. • Discriminatory pricing as between purchasers of coal rail freight services so as to disadvantage ECSL. *Certain information has been excluded from this document in order to comply with the provisions of section 56 of the Competition Act 1998 (confidentiality and disclosure of information) and the general restrictions on disclosure contained at Part 9 of the Enterprise Act 2002.
