Description Liberalization of railway markets in Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries has progressed substantially and the intensity of competition is sharply increasing. However, modal share of railways has been declining, quality of services is questionable, and liberalization is bringing about new problems in regulation of competition. The main problematic issues contain enforcing fair rules of the game, deciding between competition in and for the market, optimal level of infrastructure charges and inadequate public funding.
