	European Commission - Rail Transport and Interoperability - Overview - White Paper 2001
		The first of these measures is designed to shift the balance between modes of transport by 2010 by revitalising the railways, promoting maritime and inland waterways transport and linking up the different modes of transport.
		For Railways, the goal to achieve in 2010 is to maintain the modal share of rail transport at the same level of 1998, thus reversing the decline of rail transport observed over the last 30 years.
		Rail transport is thus expected to grow significantly as the total transport demand in 2010 is expected to be 40% higher than in 1998.

	Transport innovations Rail transport
		Similar to passengers transport an increase of speed is an important driving force for new developments in rail freight transport.
		In contradiction to passenger transport however, technological developments are less focused towards increasing the maximum speed of trains, but rather towards improving the transit time in the total logistic chain.
		Since speed of terminal transport and handling are assumed to rise, this might have a negative influence on energy consumption.
