The bases for calculating these charges are published in the Track Access Ordinance (NZV) and in the Federal Office of Transport (FOT) ordinance on the Track Access Ordinance (NZV-BAV). This List of Infrastructure Services (LIS) features the train-path charges for basic and additional services provided on the standard-gauge infrastructures of SBB AG, Thurbo, Sensetalbahn (STB), Schweizerische Südostbahn AG (SOB), BLS Netz AG and Port Railways of Switzerland Ltd. (HBSAG). The prices listed are net prices in Swiss francs (CHF) and do not include VAT. They are valid for the ordering and execution of operations from 1st January 2020 to 31 December 2020. The List of Infrastructure Services is available in German, French, Italian and English. In the event of differences of interpretation, the German text shall be deemed authoritative. Basic services 1Art. 18–21 NZV The basic services consist of the base price, the contribution margin and the electricity price. The price for basic services is set on a non-discriminatory basis by the Swiss Federal Office of Transport (FOT). Basic services include: train-path use (of the specified quality), including train operating services; ex-catenary power supply; safe and punctual operations, including the telecommunications and IT services required for these operations; use of tracks by the trains in unchanged formation for freight operations; and the provision of platform space for passenger trains, including access to public amenities.

The minimum price varies depending on the category of route and is multiplied by coefficients relating to demand and train- path quality. Formula Minimum train-path price Peak-hour Train-path quality (section 1.1.1.1) × demand coefficient × (section 1.1.1.3) (section 1.1.1.2) Art. 19 NZV 1.1.1.1 Minimum train-path price Art. 1 NZV-BAV Appendix 1 NZV-BAV Rates Price in CHF per unit A network category 3.50/tpkm B network category 1.50/tpkm C network category 1.15/tpkm Definition The minimum train-path price takes account of different operating standards and standards of facilities. The route classifications in categories are determined and published by the Swiss Federal Office of Transport (FOT). See NZV-BAV for details. The price difference between the A and B network categories is based on operating, mainte- nance, alarm and rescue facilities. (Category A routes are tunnels with their own operational control centres.) The C network category only comprises single-track sections with a low standard of facilities. These are sections with long intervals between crossing places (> 5 km) and basic public facilities (no rail-free acess paths). Calculation Train-path kilometres × minimum train-path price rate List of Infrastructure Services 2020 | Basic services 9 Art. 19a NZV 1.1.1.2 Peak-hour demand coefficient Appendix 1 NZV-BAV Demand coefficients Coefficient Sections for which a peak-hour demand coefficient is not applied 1 Sections for which a peak-hour demand coefficient is applied 2 Definition The peak-hour demand coefficient takes account of train-path scarcity during peak hours. A sec- tion is regarded as being heavily used if, during peak hours, it is travelled on by at least six trains per main track kilometre per hour. The route classifications are determined and published by the FOT. See NZV-BAV for details. Calculation The minimum train-path price is doubled during peak hours on heavily used standard-gauge routes. The time at which a train leaves an operating point in accordance with the target timetable is decisive for the application of the demand coefficient. Peak hours are regarded as Monday to Friday from 06.00 to 08.59 and from 16.00 to 18.59. Sundays are regarded as public holidays; therefore, the demand coefficient applied on these days is 1. Other public holidays are: 1 and 2 January, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Ascension, Whit Monday, 1 August, and 25 and 26 December. Art. 19a NZV 1.1.1.3 Train-path quality Categories Coefficient Category A (franchise-holders’ long-distance passenger services) 1.25 Category B (franchise-holders’ other passenger services) 1.0 Category C: (paths of non-concessionary passenger services, passenger 0.7 service empty runs and freight services) ì See Appendix 3 for definitions by NeTS category Category D (Freight train paths with a total running time of at least 15 minutes 0.6 longer than the fastest possible path of the same maximum speed; paths of light engines, “tractor-hauled” and short-distance freight trains with individual wagon loads.) In the case of journeys on the Lötschberg and Gotthard base tunnel routes, the coefficient of the next highest category is always used for Categories C and D.
