IMHO the low average space utilisation of 37 places per coach, 32 if you ignore the seated cars is not helpful to increase the margin either (their previous sleepers offered 36 places).

Guess if you can't run trains for months because of trackworks, pay more TAC because of detours pay more compensations because of delays it's hard to make a profit even with the latest design.

En av anledningarna till att Back-on-Track.eu kräver att EU tar ansvar för att inrätta ett ramverk för upphandling av nattåg över hela kontinenten.

... att driva deras nätverk till och med 2024 - så länge det var mögligt. Svenskarna var bland de första att pröva konkurrensutsatta upphandlingar, men blev också de första att göra denna typ av erfarenheter. 3/4

Men medan kommissionen har till uppgift att utforma marknaden utan att ha erfarenhet av att driva den, driver nationalstaterna den utan full förståelse av utformningen. De flesta nationalstater kringgick detta grundläggande problem genom att direkt beordra sina etablerade operatörer ... 2/4

Jag håller med om att järnvägssystemet är egentligen olämpligt för konkurrens, ändå måste vi realisera att det var ett gemensamt europeiskt beslut om att göra tågtrafik till en marknad. 1/4

And on the other side of the mountain lies Kandersteg, just as threatened as Blatten. Home to Albert Rösti, Swiss minister of transport, who continues to promote air traffic as good as he can. How blind can you be not to see what this is doing to your home. 2/2

It's heartbreaking. I learned to ski in deep snow in the Lötschental. I spent a night in Blatten, in a Massenlager with a dozen ski tourers aiming to cross the Lötschenlücke to the Aletsch. The place was so breathtakingly picturesque. All gone. 1/2

You are right that this is neither improving passenger rights nor prohibiting discrimination, but this must be solved by regulation from EU. BTW looking at how passenger rights in air transport are to be weakened, I am not sure that better compensation for train delays should be a top priority now.

If DB achieves to present a working cross-european NON-DISCRIMINATORY ticket sales platform with ALL PRICES on the the base of its best-in-class search engine INCLUDING EUROPEAN SLEEPER by the end of the year - I wouldn't mind the EU to declare OSDM a possible standard. Carrots & sticks.

Certainly not the breakthrough DB tries to sell. BUT the positive aspect - it can hardly be worse than international [email protected] right now AND that EU standardization seems to exercise some pressure on the CER members to prove their promised OSDM miracle is actually working somewhere.
