International Railway Organisations
Severe competition from other transport modes made
railways establish international railway organisations. Their
work is realized within the framework of several
institutions.
The UIC or the International Union of Railways was
founded in 1922. It promotes cooperation between railways
at the world level and carries out activities to develop
international rail transport. In order to reach understanding,
the UIC has established standard railway terminology and
international classification system of locomotives and
railway carriages. The Soviet Union was among the
founding members of the UIC in 1922. However, the Cold
War made the USSR leave the UIC. Nowadays, a special
working group has been set up to restart cooperation
between JSC Russian Railways and the UIC.

95
The Community of European Railways and
1. the International Union of
Railways
a) to design,
manufacture, maintain
and reconstruct rail
transport systems
Infrastructure Companies brings together railway
undertakings and infrastructure companies from the
European Union, Norway, Switzerland and other states. It
promotes modern environmentally friendly modes of rail
transport systems.
The Union of the European Railway Industries is
responsible for design, manufacture, maintenance and
reconstruction of rail transport systems. Besides, there are
some other interesting international alliances such as
international air rail organisations. They develop, build and
operate fast rail air links to passengers.
The European Conference of Ministers of Transport
is an intergovernmental organisation established in October
1953. Russia joined the ECMT in 1997 and has been its
active member ever since. Russian railways are a vital link
for Eurasia from East to West, and from North to South.
The Coordinating Council on Trans-Siberian
Transportation (CCTT) is a non-commercial transport
association. Its main purpose is to attract transit cargo to the
Trans-Siberian route. Much work of Russian Railways takes
place within the framework of the Organisation for
Cooperation of Railway Lines (OSJD). Its main aim is to
develop international transcontinental freight and passenger
transport, and to create a common rail transport space in
Eurasia.

The Community of European Railways
The Community of European Railways (CER) is the
leading European railway organisation and a part of the
International Union of Railways. It was founded in 1988
with 12 members and now brings together 72 railway
undertakings and infrastructure companies – private and
state-owned, large and small.
European Railways recognise that their future depends
on the international dimension.

99
At the international level the railways are relatively free
to apply the most appropriate models in the common
interest. The development of international train networks is
accompanied by recognition of the need to adapt future
services to the technological opportunities offered by high
speeds and vehicle design and to the principles of service
marketing.
The governance structure of the CER rests in three main
bodies: the General Assembly, the Management Committee
and the Assistants Group.
The General Assembly is the decision-making body of
the CER. All member companies are represented by their
chief executive or director general.
The Management Committee prepares the decisions of
the General Assembly. It consists of the CER Chairman,
three Vice-Chairmen and further members elected by the
General Assembly. The size of the Management Committee
is limited to a maximum of 14 members.
The Assistants Group helps to facilitate the continuous
exchange of information between the CER and its members.
The CER members are represented by their
international/European affairs managers.
The goals of the CER are: 1) to represent the railway’s
interests, 2) to aid the development of the railway
transportation and policy in the European Union, 3) to
develop the partnership between the members of the
European Union.
European Railways concentrate their efforts on effective
speeds between economic centres, quality control and transit
reliability, information systems and modal flexibility.
The development of high-speed lines and technology
adds a new dimension to inter-urban opportunities for
railway development. Nowadays European high-speed lines
link economic centers and open opportunities for

100
technological development of railway signalling, train
construction and trading all over the world.
Questions for discussion:
1. What is the Community of European Railways?
2. What are the advantages of European Railways`
cooperation?
3. What is the development of international train networks
accompanied by?
4. What are the governance bodies of the CER?
5. What is the decision-making body of the CER?
6. What is the role of the Management Committee?
7. What is the Assistants Group responsible for?
8. What are the goals of the CER?
9. What do European Railways concentrate their efforts on?
10. Why is the development of high-speed lines important
for the future of the railways?
