Thank you for your time and I would now like to open up discussion with the panel and allow them to discuss how their rail environments are meeting the challenges of Globalization. GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
Technically speaking have the other railroads kept up with the technology developments of the Motor Carrier transportation systems?Have they been able to keep up with the increased carrying capacities of the longer and heavier trucks on their highways? GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
Do other railroads see double stacking containers as a viable alternative to competing with motor carriers and if so are they faced with any obstacles to implementing double stacking? GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
How do other railroads promote the movement of containerized traffic inland to their consumption points? GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
In addition to other innovations, has the development of higher freight train speed contributed significantly to the railways competitive advantages? If yes, what are the main strategies to increase speed and what is the average freight train speed for the various countries and markets? GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
Have the other railroads developed partnership relationships with any steamship companies or motor carriers which would allow them to promote the use of rail? GRFC 2007 RSE Consulting
The global transportation business is moving towards integrated logistical chains and many carrier companies have extended their activities to various logistical activities, like forwarding, warehouseing, customeer service etc. During the last 10 years, what is the revenue contribution from such activities and what are the prospects for the future?
