Internationaler Eisenbahnverband UIC: Steigende Tendenzen im Schienenverkehr

摘要

"Generally positive" was the term used to describe the results of the past year as presented recently in Paris by the International Railway Union UIC (Union International des Chemins de fer). Nevertheless, according to the members of the executive board, political decision makers are given so little support that road transport still retains decisive competitive advantages over the far more environment-friendly option of rail transport. According to UIC chairman Antonio Lorenzio Necci, however, 1995 was a record year internationally, with passenger traffic up by three per cent and goods traffic by around six per cent, although the strikes by the French state railway SNCF had also prejudiced the results of all its neighbouring countries.%Eine allgemein positive Entwicklung für den Schienenverkehr kennzeichnet die Resultate von 1995, die der internationale Eisenbahnverband UIC (Union International des Chemins de fer) Mitte März in Paris der Presse vorstellte.
