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.

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.

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?
