"C'est un peu le Désert des Tartares. On se prépare, mais on ne voit rien venir !", s'amuse Sophie Boissard, directrice générale de Gares et Connexions , la nouvelle entité chargée de la gestion des gares au sein de la SNCF. On attendait la Deutsche Bahn , une alliance de Veolia et d'Air France-KLM ou encore Virgin.

Railway Insider - SNCF's freight transport division may be relau
“The long way towards an interoperable railway system” In the beginning of the '90s, the European railway industry with support from the EU institutions engaged in creating a common railway signalling system. Over time, ETMS emerged as one of the most successful European industrial projects and is now on its way to making railway transport one of the most competitive transport modes. Although railway transport is, by far, the safest, fastest and lowest CO2-emission mode of transport, it is, however, confronted with one of the most striving problems, that of cross-border traffic which is complex and difficult to manage and most of the times affects the competitiveness of this means of transport. Cross-border traffic is doubled by the differences of gauge, electrification systems, administrative procedures, that make interoperability difficult and increase operation costs. <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
» As Europe pushes competition in the railway sector, the role of the public enterprise slowly fades away. The first threat came earlier this year, when French national railway operator SNCF signaled that it was considering cutting some TGV high-speed train routes between the nation’s regional capitals. Facing increasing track use fees and the economic recession, one in five TGV services now lose money, and SNCF seemed ready to stop operating direct services from Bordeaux, Nantes, and Lille to Strasbourg. Many people hoping to travel from destinations in the eastern part of the country to the west would have to transfer in Paris. Still under the control of the French government, however, SNCF announced that no TGV services would be cut , and that the rail company would have to find ways to increase ridership or cut services elsewhere.
