"This new directive, the result of two years of difficult negotiations with the Member States, aims to create a ‘global and integrated’ European railway area, both for freight and international passenger transportation. Ultimately, the goal is to increase the share of rail in freight transport and bring down prices for passengers. The new rules provide that transport operators and infrastructure managers must necessarily have separate accounts to ensure transparency of any transfers of public funds between the two entities, even if they are in a holding company, and so avoid disadvantaging potential private operators. All operators, whether public or private, should enjoy the same tariffs and conditions of access to a given network, both in terms of train paths and service facilities (maintenance workshops, stations). Finally, allocation of train paths to operators will include incentives to modernise bonus-malus type equipment with a view to reducing noise and equipping trains with the European Train Control System (ETCS) for maximum safety. The text does not deal with Member States’ internal relations."@en1
