- W610525778 abstract "There is a race to develop high-speed trains in Europe and the Far East, as railway companies concentrate on management and service quality. This article reviews the market for them, and suggests that international management consortia may be the best way for rail to present an attractive, cost-effective alternative to the new generation of low-cost airlines. A table gives some details of the 143 high-speed trains ordered in 1997-99. All European trains ordered are tilting, and all have distributed power. The Virgin Rail Group order is the largest, with 54 Pendolino trains of 8-9 cars, to be delivered between March 2001 and May 2002; they will start running at 200kph, rising to 225kph from May 2005. It was also the first for a high-speed train from a private rail operator. Its contract has the following interesting features: (1) suppliers winning an international tender where they had to meet an output-based business specification; (2) an alliance between two rival train builders as a winning bidder; (3) Europe-wide production; and (4) a joint company set up by the builders to maintain the new trains during Virgin's franchise. The article describes some of the other current and prospective orders. It finally discusses prospects for developing the high-speed train market in competition with new low-cost airlines." @default.
