What is the point of these companies? This one even uses OBB equipment. This is like Ryanair for passenger rail, right? These small private companies fail because they are not dependable, they have limited capital for equipment, personnel and maintenance etc, and because passenger rail is a public utility, it is not a for-profit business. Anyone who thinks it can be a regular business is dreaming. Many of these companies exist mainly to provide tax breaks for rich investors, so they may not even care if they lose money. Most of these companies are non-union, unlike the state railways. Also the state railways have many more requirements to satisfy so they can operate. So it is unfair to let these small companies come in and steal passengers from them.
Tell me what do you think about the business class in the Regiojet trains. Or did you even try it and share your experience?
