Europe- Asian Rail Links: What we ship
East-West-East by rail (rough numbers per year based on 04/05 half-year results )
 Number of rail cars

 east bound: 22.000

 west bound: 4.500

 total: 26.500
Unbalanced traffic
 thereof cars with containers and container flow

 east bound: 10.000

 west bound: 2.000

 total: 12.000

 equivalent of about 30.000 containers

Vast majority of cars passes through Brest/Malazevice

Main destinations are CIS states

Deutsche Bahn AG | Seite 7 |Statement UNECE Geneva 16.09.2005
For DB´s Rail Companies PAN Corridor II and its connections
into Asia is the most important rail link

Most important rail corridors between Europe and Asia

 Efficient (despite gauge changes) Rail Corridors do exist as „spines“ for through traffic on rail
: in particular Trans Siberian Route with connecting PAN-Corridor II to West Europe
 Transport time only 14 days as opposed to >30 days for combined sea-land transport
 Market demands Door-to-door-solution, managing feeder services and handling
favourably by way of OSS

Trends container transport

 China's ports are expected to handle 100 million standard
containers by 2010 and the capacity will even double by
0 2020, according to a plan set by the Ministry of
Communications (Statistics show that the port handling
Year 2002 Year 2003 Year 2004 capacity in China already amounted to 48 million containers
Westbound Eastbound last year 2003)

Deutsche Bahn AG | Seite 10 |Statement UNECE Geneva 16.09.2005
A number of factors still hinder significant increase in the eurasian rail traffic (1)
 Imbalance of container flow
 container flow from Asia ( China) to Europe is 3 to 4
times higher than the one from Europe to Asia.
Accordingly market prices are 2200 to
500 US$
 Distorted pricing structure in Russia
 Rail transport to and from Russian sea ports are
significantly advantaged over all-land rail transport.
Eg: Vostochny-Brest is 35% lower than Sabaikalsk-
Brest and 20% lower than Naushki-Brest.
 Low cost competition by road shipments
 lorries take an increasing chunk of the market share
 low labor costs along the entire route
 less time for boarder handling

16.09.2005
 Participating Railways together with
forwarders and other stake holders in
the market need to find solution for
container management which is
focused on the entire Eurasian region
 Russia ought to create a price
structure for rail transport which is
unbiased vis a´vis the kind of transport
route
 Railways need to emphasise their
advantages like reliability, safety, in
particular for long distance haulage.
 I the 4-axis.project (D,PL,BR.R) the 4
Railways together with governments
have agreed to systematically improve
the trafic flow and border procedures
along Corridor II. Including improved
corridor management and quality
monitoring. Aim Berlin-Moscow 3,5
days for prime products.
A number of factors still hinder significant increase in the eurosian rail traffic (2)
 Customs Border Crossing Procedures
disruptions of flow of goods and confiscation at
Brest even at the smallest errors in the papers.
Consequently, many customers turned to prefer road
trucking for the segments between western Europe
and either Brest or Moscow.
 Different Freight Law causes complications
 Re-writing of bill of ladings /re-expedition at the
OSShD/CIM border is time consuming, costly and
leads to mistakes which, again, can cause
disruptions with the customs authorities.
Deutsche Bahn AG | Seite 12 |Statement UNECE Geneva 16.09.2005
 Situation has improved in the recent past
but improvements can still be reached.
Generally, there should be no customs
inspections for transit transports .
I.e.international agreement that customs
handling only at point of entry at destination
country.
 Railways have ( in the 4-axis-project) called
for an integrated CIM/OSShD freight
document which is being accepted by
authorities along the entire Corridor. At the
same time it must be acknowledged as the
customs form at the same time. Railways
now support the different efforts to
exploring ways for implementation
For the future, Deutsche Bahn AG considers the potential for
rail transport between Asia and western Europe to increase

Transport Volume (without pipeline)

2004

Russia:
 D: 14,5 Mio.t
WME (D,F,B,NL,L, DK,P): 35 Mio.t
2010: 70 Mio t.
Modal Share Rail today: 2%

 D: 10 Mio t (all goods)
Europe: 1.5 Mio t (high value goods

Advantage Rail:  Asia  Europe 9,0 Mio. TEU
 time /distance advantage  Asia  USA 11,3 Mio. TEU
 rail friendly distances between 3000 and 10.000 km
 generally well developed rail infrastructure
